Contemporary art seeks answers in the past to repair the future

The second part of the exhibition organized between TBA21 and C3A is presented under the motto: 'On the ancestral paths'.

More than 40 artists participate in this great collective essay that reflects on the necessary impulse of collective memory to dream of a better future

Before imagining a new horizon, it is necessary to look back, examine the path already traveled, to correct the mistakes made and better value those successes that went unnoticed. This is the idea explored by Remedios: along the ancestral paths, the exhibition that the TBA21 Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary foundation organizes together with the Center for Contemporary Creation of Andalusia (C3A) in Córdoba. With this idea of delving into collective memory to better respond to the uncertainty of the future, the second part of this exhibition, which began on April 14, will be expanded from September 22 with twenty new works and placing emphasis on the importance of recovering a level of ancestral consciousness.
Names like Taloi Havini, Asunción Molinos Gordo, Selma Selman, Pierre Mukeba or Himali Singh Soin are among the more than forty artists who participate in this great collective essay that reflects on the challenges that human beings must face in their search for finding a way of living that is more respectful of the ecosystem. An exercise in historical rehabilitation in which to feel the scars of the past, revisit the wounds that were left unhealed and seek in them the impulse to heal what continues to mark the problems of the present, through art.

The concept of the exhibition works as a stimulating experience marked by contrast where the brutalism of a museum like the C3A plays a fundamental role. The large, cold and impersonal space of the building contrasts with the nature of the artistic pieces, which draw a route in which the diversity in the use of styles, formats, materials and textures invites reflection.
