Genius Loci: 11 De Marc - 5 De Juny De 2011

Designed as a stroll along the different tracks of an album, Genius Loci is a cross between the experience of listening to a museum audio guide and listening to songs on an iPod or an MP3 player. The selected musicians are introduced as conceptual artists, both because of the content of their music and of the way in which they are introduced and they present themselves. All the artists have their own strategies, which involve reflection on what it currently means to be a musician in Barcelona. For some, this reflection is manifest in the staging, for others it is in the lyrics or in recording strategies, and for yet others it is in their completely open tendency to cross artistic disciplines. They are not only musicians, but also heirs to Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol.
