Among the upcoming activities that will take place in September, from September 21 to February 27, you can visit the Natural Magic exhibition by Leonor Serrano Rivas. In his work, Serrano Rivas uses the installation as a means to generate spaces where the viewer ceases to be a mere passive agent to take on a capital function. His work oscillates, in this way, between the performative and the theatrical, understanding the public as an indispensable element for the artistic experience to take place, and specifying the piece to be complete.

On the other hand, from September 28 to March 27, the museum hosts the exhibition organized by the Contemporary Culture Center of Barcelona (CCCB) and the Reina Sofia Museum, Francesc Tosquelles. Like a sewing machine in a wheat field. The exhibition is part of the research project The forgotten legacy of Francesc Tosquelles (1912-1994), Catalan psychiatrist and theorist, whose main objective is to recover the importance it had for the transfer of knowledge within the imaginary collective about psychiatry, the history of psychopathology and medical experimentation around the visual arts. The exhibition collects the biographical trajectory and the political, cultural and professional context of Tosquelles through documents, photographs and recordings where his conception of psychiatric practice is exposed.
