Color is the visual skin of the work

On April 9, 2026, the Centre d’études catalanes will open a fascinating dialogue on the materiality of art. In this journey, pigment ceases to be merely a superficial layer and becomes a living membrane, a sensitive surface that breathes and reacts to its environment. By observing how the hue envelops the form, one grasps the importance of this interface that connects the artist’s intention with the retina. This selection, visible until July 3, 2026, proposes to rethink our relationship to the visible through works where the surface becomes the very heart of the subject. An ideal springtime encounter to appreciate the chromatic richness and texture of the creations presented in this intimate setting dedicated to Catalan culture.
