A recognisable symbo

A recognisable symbol of supreme beauty, vanity and luxury, the peacock has endlessly been represented through art history. In ‘Fragile’ (2016), MASBEDO carries on with the metaphor while lingering on the fragility of the superb animal, and therefore of art. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ As part of a wider programme of collaborations with international collections, for the festival’s upcoming edition the Italian producer In Between Art Film by Beatrice Bulgari and LOOP will present a selection of works by the Italian duo at the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya. Curated by Paola Ugolini, the selection will feature a series of films revolving around the concepts of ‘care’, ‘beauty’, ‘memory’ and the preservation of our cultural heritage. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photo: MASBEDO, ‘Fragile’, 2016.
