Todo por la Praxis Examines Migration and Exclusion in 'Un jardín extraordinario' at Centre d'Art La Panera
From June 13 to October 4, 2026, the Centre d'Art La Panera in Lleida, Catalonia, Spain, will host 'Todo por la Praxis. Un jardín extraordinario,' a solo exhibition curated by Andrea Pacheco González. This showcase highlights the works of the collective Todo por la Praxis, which is spearheaded by Chilean artist Jo Muñoz and Spanish architect Diego Peris López. Their focus encompasses themes such as migration, border fatalities, racial discrimination, and housing rights. Featured projects include 'Migrar es para siempre' (2022–2023), 'La Cañada es real' (2025), 'Necrometrías' (2025), and 'Un jardín extraordinario' (2022–2025). This exhibition aligns with the 2026 Ceuta border crisis, during which over 70,000 individuals crossed from Morocco on July 30–31, leading to hundreds of deaths and disappearances.
