The Equestrian Circle presented this Monday by invitation, his first exhibition of modern and contemporary art, which will occupy some of the facilities of this club (between tomorrow and Sunday), located at the confluence of Diagonal and Balmes. The exhibition, open between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. to everyone, features a hundred works by painters such as Miró, Tàpies, Picasso and Clavé, as well as other current artists from 14 galleries in Barcelona: ADN Galería, Jorge Alcolea, Marc Calzada, David Cervelló, Mayoral, Marlborough, Joan Prats and Galería Senda, among them. “We are satisfied with this initiative that is committed to art and highlights the importance of culture in this exceptional situation, said the president of the Circle, Antonio Delgado. While its vice president, Enrique Lacalle, assured: “Modern culture and art have a very important weight in today’s society and, therefore, the Equestrian Circle has wanted to become a showcase for the city’s most prominent gallery owners and, at the same time, offer a new cultural experience to all its members and visitors ”.
The exhibition will take place in different areas of the Círculo Ecuestre, specifically, in the ‘La Espuela’ room, located on the ground floor of the club, in ‘La Terraza’ on the first floor and, on the entire second floor of the Palace.
At the same time, a cycle of three conferences (from Wednesday to Friday) “on current events in the world of culture and art” has been organized, which can be followed in person and on the Circle’s YouTube channel. They will be run by Antoni Vila Casas, president of the Vila Casas Private Foundation; Carlos Guerra, art critic; the collector and member of the board of the Fundació Miró, Carlos Usandizaga; the collector Aurelia Carulla; the cultural consultant Llucià Homs and the journalist Luis Campo Vidal.
