Bombas Gens / Appetizer designed by Ricard Camarena inspired by “Earth: a retrospective”.

This visit is a unique opportunity to discover one of the most unique art collections of our time. The Per Amor a l’Art Collection, started in 2010 with the advice of Vicent Todolí; is a private collection of photography and contemporary art composed of large and unique sets of work by national and international artists. Currently, the collection consists of more than 2,250 works, 2631 pieces, by some 220 authors, and is exhibited in the facilities of the Fundació Per Amor a l’Art at Bombas Gens Centre d’Art.

In 2018, it received the “A” award for collecting from the ARCO Foundation. In the exhibition “Earth: A Retrospective”, curated by El Ultimo Grito (Rosario Hurtado and Roberto Feo), we discover the Per Amor a l’Art Collection presented as a “creative geography”; an editing concept developed by Lev Kuleshov, designed to collide shots from different locations to generate a new seamless landscape where the narrative transpires.

This exhibition features works from the Per Amor a l’Art Collection and El Ultimo Grito, including artists such as Nobuyoshi Araki, Bleda y Rosa, Iñaki Bonillas, Pedro Cabrita Reis, Joan Cardells, Tacita Dean, Kōji Enokura, Elger Esser, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Noritoshi Hirakawa, Inma Femenía, Paul Graham, Jonas Mekas, Mathieu Mercier, Matt Mullican, Thomas Ruff, Armando Salas Portugal and Aaron Siskind, among others. At the end of the visit, with the help of Vermouths VITTORE and Ricard Camarena, visitors will be able to discover 3 different vermouths, the secrets of their preparation and some of the most recommended pairings, tasted together with an appetizer prepared by Ricard Camarena inspired by the exhibition EARTH: A RETROSPECTIVE”: THE LAST SCREAM AND THE COLLECTION PER AMOR A L’ART.
