Daughters on route is a series of four routes through the city of Barcelona, on the occasion of the exhibition Gaudí, made by different artists and artistic groups. These are routes understood in a broad, expanded and experimental way.
We are Daughters of this exploration, rethinking, questioning, experimentation and value public space. From a particular and unique point of view of each, daughters to come and go, daughters of the road.
SATURDAY, 11 DECEMBER
From the transition to pre-Olympic Barcelona according to Alberto Cardín
Route proposed by El Palomar (Mariokissme and R. Marcos Mota). Departure from Plaça Reial at 11.30 h (duration 45 min/1 h)
The route is a tribute to Alberto Cardín, a prominent writer, anthropologist and proto-queer activist during the years of the Spanish transition. His work is fundamental as a critique of the transition to democracy from the present.
Through three stops and the reading of three of his works, we will tour the daily city of the writer, which begins with the scoundrelly spirit of the 70’s Barcelona, the gentrification for economic inflation, ending with the height of the AIDS crisis in the 1990s.
SUNDAY, 12 DECEMBER
Gaudí. Water and fire
Route proposed by Sitesize (Elvira Pujol Masip and Joan Vila Puig Morera). Departure from Park Güell (corner between C/ Olot and Av. Santuario San José de la Montaña), at 11.30 h
The route is an open exploration through a convulsed Barcelona. From the Park Güell and following the torrent del Pecat we will cross part of the extensive territory of the Vila de Gràcia and Eixample to enter the memory of these events of the city, the life and the work of the renowned architect. This tour is part of the Serps d'Aigua. Les rieres ocultes de Barcelona.
SATURDAY, 18 DECEMBER
Espectros psico/geo/gráficos
Route proposed by Espectros de lo Urbano (Antoine Silvestre and Nancy Garín). Departure from Glòries (esplanade behind the Design Museum) at 11. 30 h (duration 2 h)
Are we talking about urbanity? City, urbanity. Although many of us know what we mean by the term city, it is not always the case with urbanity. What difference does it make?
Espectros de lo Urbano understands urbanity as the greatest spatial expression of our society and the system that articulates it. Transcending the limits of the city, urbanity is the negotiation between capitalism and the territories in which it expands.
What are the aspects of the neoliberal capitalist system that can be recorded from the new visual elements of dense urban space; the city?
In this "no route" we want to collectively recognize these visible and invisible lines that inhabit the city, which determine the urbanity we inhabit. A no path in which each one "derives" and composes his own look and experience on these spectral marks and build together a collective psychogeographical mapping.
SUNDAY, 19 DECEMBER
Looking for boundaries
Route proposed by Nil Joan. Departure from the car park of the Bellvitge Hospital, opposite the Bellvitge Hospital metro exit (L1), at 11.30 h (duration 2 h)
An experience for the residual spaces that the limits of the city generate unconsciously. The purpose of the route is to try to understand these spaces detached from their historical memory as authentic monuments that define the city.
Looking for boundaries is a route that draws one of the peripheral lines of the city of Barcelona. The route will pass through different symbolic points such as the park of Bellvitge, the polygon la Pedrosa or the Paseo de la Zona Franca.
Route not suitable for people with reduced mobility.
