1. Guillermo Lorca - Esplendor de la Noche
The first European solo show, Esplendor de la Noche exhibits the artworks of Guillermo Lorca, a contemporary Chilean artist whose world consists of big yellow-eyed cats, angelic girls, and other strange and unknown creatures. Lorca uses a blend of magic and realism to create large-scale oil paintings depicting dreamy and surreal sequences and storylines. Creating a balance of power and competition between nature and humankind, the exhibition comprises elements like beauty, luxury, horror, and paranoia – all of which make up this dark world of Lorca.
2. Moco Masters Barcelona
MOCO Masters celebrates the legends as well as the rising stars of modern and contemporary art, who have contributed significantly to art, culture, and the world. The works of artists like Warhol, Basquiat, Banksy, and Kusama among others have found their way into the homes of people and inspired them to question and hope for a better future. The exhibition also displays the works of the next generation of artists who have the courage to challenge the norm, self-reflect, and ask questions.
3. KAWS Barcelona
Brian Donnelly, aka KAWS, has several beautiful artworks on display at this exhibition including ‘Man’s Best Friend Sofa’, ‘Final Days’, and ‘Passing Through Black’, to name a few. One of the most incredible and remarkable contemporary artists, KAWS’ works – graphics, sculptures, vibrant paintings, collectible artworks, and more – are a blend of elements ranging from pop culture and letters to nostalgic illustration. A lot of his works are inspired by cartoon characters like Smurfs, Spongebob, Snoopy, and The Simpsons, among others.
