This exhibition catalog embodies the spirit of “A Bridge to Stay On,” a site-specific project specifically designed for Sala Alcalá 31. In this exhibition, visual artist Guillermo Mora (born in Alcalá de Henares in 1980) continues his investigation into the traditional boundaries of painting, like two-dimensionality, frontality, and representation. Through his work, Mora addresses issues that extend beyond the pictorial and suggest alternative forms of existence, encapsulating the idea of “Painting as Resistance.”
The catalog serves as an object that reflects the spatial intervention achieved through the color studies employed by the artist. It challenges established hierarchies and orders, leading to new ways of navigating, perceiving, and experiencing both space and painting.
The catalog features photographs by Luis Asín, a text by Pia Ogea—the curator of the exhibition—and a conversation between Carlos Fernández-Pello and Guillermo Mora.
EIGHT EXTRAORDINARY SPATIAL QUESTIONS
Eight Spatially Extraordinary Questions is set in the Tabacalera building, which has a rich history tied to a particular economic, political, and social context. This diverse location serves as the ideal setting for the eight site-specific artistic interventions created by the artists in the exhibition, with each intervention placed in its own distinct space.

Many of the authors of Generación 2013 agree that in their respective projects—directly, without any artifice—concepts such as emptiness, ruin, loss, and disappearance are addressed; an approach that, in tune with current events in the world, is open to enrichment through multiple interpretations by viewers.
