Exhibition 'Vuit' by Frederic Amat


'Vuit' is a compelling exhibition that showcases the artistic journey of Frederic Amat, a renowned artist from Barcelona born in 1952. This exhibition intricately weaves together the dialogues that Amat has had with numerous poets, writers, playwrights, and philosophers from the 1970s to the present. It highlights these ‘conversations’ through an engaging display of words, images, strokes, and questions. Notable components include an unreleased short film titled Al filo, produced specifically for La Virreina and featuring collaboration with Chantal Maillard, as well as partnerships with distinguished figures such as Mark Strand, J. V. Foix, Octavio Paz, and Guillermo Cabrera Infante, among others. Inspired by Peter Sloterdijk’s musings, 'Vuit' emphasizes that artistic creation is a long epistle involving multiple authors, echoing the interconnectedness of art and literature.
