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 took place in Barcelona and 11 surrounding cities ot its metropolitan region.

Video installation exhibited at Museo San Telmo

This project restaged Joseph Beuys’s legendary attempts to teach art to a dead hare. In this video by German artist John Bock the hare is alive and runs around a living room filled with minuscule sculptures and intricate structures. The video was accompanied by a live piano performance by Bara, whose improvised electronic soundtrack reflected the underlying rhythm of the video.
