Manifesta purposely strives to keep its distance from what are often seen as the dominant centres of artistic production, instead seeking fresh and fertile terrain for the mapping of a new cultural topography.
Manifesta 15 Barcelona will be taking place in Barcelona and 11 surrounding metropolitan cities

Posters in public space
In her project, Croatian artist Andreja Kulunčić questioned Manifesta’s participating artists about their income in 2001 and compared this information with the average annual income of their respective countries. She presented the results on twenty public advertising spaces along with portraits of the artists. These posters made visible the discrepancy between reality and the prejudice regarding artists.
