About

Hosted at the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona from May 15 to October 15, 2026, 'Digital Frontiers and Catalan Identity' offers a profound investigation into the intersection of emerging digital infrastructure and deep-rooted cultural heritage. Featuring the pioneering works of Antoni Abad and Joan Fontcuberta, the exhibition navigates the complex tension between traditional Catalan markers and the fluid, borderless nature of our contemporary technological landscape. Through a curated series of interactive digital installations and thought-provoking video essays, visitors are invited to challenge their perceptions of regional identity in an age of rapid innovation. This exhibition serves as a critical platform for discourse regarding digital sovereignty and the evolving future of creative expression within Catalonia. By bridging historical narratives with future-facing digital media, the show encourages a vital conversation about how we define ourselves in an increasingly interconnected and computerized world.
