Within the program of parallel activities "Women X Design X Women" to this exhibition, a series of interviews, conferences, conversations, family activities, presentations, screenings, wikimarathons, micro-conferences, podcasts and guided tours have been scheduled.

The best design of the year

On the other hand, you can also visit the temporary exhibition The best design of the year in which you can appreciate how design and the arts influence and are influenced by society, culture, economy, technology and environment that surrounds them, so that they transform year after year.

This annual exhibition shows the evolution of creative disciplines through concrete, real projects, which have been selected by juries made up of prestigious professionals, who have assessed the excellence, originality and conceptual innovation of the projects presented to the awards organized by the FAD associations in the different disciplines of design and the arts. The Ribozim work by Girona's Edgar Massegú, made with iron yarn, paper cellulose, hemp tow, esparto fiber, espadrille fiber and a light installation, which is exhibited in this exhibition, should be highlighted. The exhibition can be visited until January 7, 2024.
