This multidisciplinary exhibition showcases a broad spectrum of young Spanish artists. Their works reflect the concerns and anxieties that motivate them, mirroring the complexities of today’s world.
The artists use various media and techniques, including painting, drawing, photography, comics, video installations, sound installations, and traditional installations. Many of the artists in Generación 2013 emphasize concepts such as emptiness, ruin, loss, and disappearance in their projects. This approach resonates with current events and invites viewers to engage with their work in multiple ways, allowing for diverse interpretations.
