Books have margins for a reason. That’s where the reader lives — in the scribbled notes, the underlined passages, the questions that don’t fit inside the text.
Margins & Museums (
@marginsandmuseums) is a book club built around a simple idea: pair a great book with an art exhibition happening here in Barcelona. Read the book. Visit the show. Then gather to talk about both.
Next pairing:
Book:
Austerlitz by W.G. Sebald
Exhibition:
Anselm
Kiefer Exhibition at La Pedrera.
For our third pairing, we’ll explore the intersection of art and literature through a novel and an exhibition that invite us to question what remains of the past and how do we learn to see it, through history, memory, materiality, architecture and absence. Let’s explore together how these two, artist and author with similar lived experiences, interpreted their experiences in such different ways.
Join us as we read, visit the exhibition, and come together for an evening of thoughtful conversation.
Place: Nimura Barcelona
Date: Wednesday, November 25th.
Time: 19h to 20:30h
