Consell de Cent, 278 Barcelona, 08007, Spain Thursday, May 3, 2018–Saturday, September 29, 2018 Opening Reception: Thursday, May 3, 2018, 7 p.m.–9 a.m.

August closed for Summer holidays

The objective of this exhibition is: 

• A tribute to the publisher Joaquim Gelabertó. 

• Highlight the importance of the graphic work in its technical variants. 

The Edicions Bertó (1979-2000) were possible thanks to the idea and impulse of Joaquim Gelabertó Vilagran (1943-2001), great enthusiast for the original graphic work. He established a deep relationship and collaboration with the artists who participated in his project. Each work was considered with maximum rigor and inventiveness: 

1/ Handmade papers and industrial papers (like the Arches) with different weights and textures.  

2/ Different printing techniques applied to each paper. 

3/ Painting interventions before and after the editions.
