Cultural recommendation for the weekend

Exhibition of films and photographs "History in Progress" by Hannah Collins

“The extreme situations experienced by emigrants, exiles and nomads are the protagonists of the most recent artistic production of Hannah Collins (London, 1956). The English artist based in Barcelona for 25 years, she has always been interested in showing the affective ties and way of life in isolated communities. On the indelible line that separates documentary from fiction, Caixaforum opens the Hannah Collins exhibition today in Madrid. History in progress. Movies and photos. There are four pieces, three of which are projected on multiple screens and a film that is exhibited for the first time and that has not been seen in the previous stops of this exhibition (Barcelona and Vitoria). In addition, some twenty large-format photographs linked to the films are exhibited: La Mina, Historia en Course and Parallel.”
