¿Sabías que lo mejor del arte contemporáneo estará en Murcia hasta el 9 de enero? Pues así es. La Bienal Europea ha elegido en esta edición a nuestro país y, en concreto, la provincia de Murcia para llevar las últimas tendencias y lo mejorcito del escaparate del arte contemporáneo en el viejo continente.
Manifiesta 8 nació hace 15 años y se le imprimió un carácter itinerante ya que entre sus objetivos estaba la idea de “romper barreras, cruzar fronteras y construir puentes”. Desde 1996, ha recorrido Rotterdam, Luxemburgo, Liubliana, Frankfurt, Donosti-San Sebastían, Nicosia y Trentino-Alto Adige y pretendía poner de manifiesto las relaciones entre Occidente y el bloque del Este.
Ahora llega a Murcia como ejemplo de relación entre tres culturas (islámica, judía y cristiana) y con la intención de analizar las relaciones Norte-Sur y, en especial, las fronteras actuales de Europa en el norte de África y la región del Magreb.
Para que te hagas una idea de la envergadura del proyecto, ahí van algunas cifras: 100 días de duración; un presupuesto de 3 millones de euros; tres colectivos de comisarios; 100 artistas; 100 obras entre piezas físicas, videos y performances; 14 sedes repartidas entre Murcia y Cartagena; y un largo listado de radio, cursos, talleres, ciclos de cine, días especiales como el Manifiesta day, etc.
El 85% de las obras que se exponen han sido realizadas concretamente para esta muestra, algo poco usual en las bienales de arte. Con ello, se ha buscado que los artistas reflexionen sobre el hilo argumental de Manifiesta 8 y expresen, a través de sus piezas, su propia visión sobre el mismo: el diálogo con el norte de África.
