Desconstruint La Model

Del 14 de desembre de 2018 al 17 de febrer de 2019

Quan es compleix un any del lliurament de claus per part de la Generalitat de Catalunya a l’Ajuntament de la ciutat, Desconstruint La Model explica els darrers dies del Centre Penitenciari d’Homes de Barcelona a partir de les imatges que la fotògrafa Duaita Prats va realitzar durant les tres visites que hi va fer el 2017. Hi vol deixar constància d’un espai que conté una intensa barreja de drama i d’esperança, d’història i de misteri, d’art i de sentiments.

El treball, a través de més d’un centenar d’escenes del final dels seus 113 anys com a presó, apropa a l’espectador un món que segurament li és desconegut i uns habitants que es mostren a través de les empremtes que hi han deixat.

L’exposició és una reflexió sobre aquest lloc tan particular que durant tant de temps ha bategat al cor de la ciutat.
