CATALONIA IN VENICE

Eventi Collaterali XXX Biennale Arte 2024
Bestiari | Carlos Casas

ORGANIZED BY

Institut Ramon Llull

20 aprile 2024 - 24 novembre 2024

An immersive and hypnotic atmosphere, populated by sounds and images of creatures coming up from real and imaginary Catalan landscapes, which leads to new listening experiences. Carlos Casas’s Bestiaries draw inspiration from the Disputa de l’ase (Dispute of the Donkey), a text written in 1417 by Anselm Turmeda. It tells the story of a man who falls asleep in an idyllic forest and when he wakes up he is able to understand the language of animals. The latter subject him to trial, questioning him about anthropocentrism.
