Exposició de varietats antifeixistes at Fundació Joan Brossa marks Pere Portabella's centenary

On April 16, the Centre de les Arts Lliures at Barcelona's Fundació Joan Brossa launched the exhibition 'Exposició de varietats antifeixistes.' Curated by Marcelo Expósito, the exhibition references the 1968 performance 'Concert Irregular' by Joan Brossa, Carles Santos, and Pere Portabella, which debuted in France in July 1968. This event is part of 'Acció Portabella,' a centenary initiative by Spain's Ministry of Culture and the Generalitat de Catalunya, showcasing archival materials alongside contemporary artists' works. A special performance, 'Concert de varietats antifeixistes,' featuring El Niño de Elche and others, is scheduled for May 2. Maria Canelles highlights the importance of reflecting on history to critique the present without romanticizing the radicalism of 1968.
