Cicle expositiu Blanc Sota Negre: Freya Powell

The exhibition "Freya Powell: I'll smile and I'm not sad. I altres passats presents" is part of the exhibition series "Blanc sota negre. Treballs des de l'imperceptible / 3" curated by Joana Masó (Centre Dona i Literatura) and Assumpta Bassas (Universitat de Barcelona). The video installations of Freya Powell's first exhibition in Barcelona call for an analysis of the links between memory and the archive, between compilation, registration, and the traces of History. Powell's work establishes a fine link between the memory of those sentenced to death in the United States, the memory of the Second World War, the artist's own memory, and the different world maps produced by colonial history. This link forces us to take into account our own connection not only with the voices and words that have been archived, but also with those voices that we want to hear and register.
