One more year, Drap-Art, the International Festival of Sustainable Art of Catalonia, returns, and this year, more than ever, it will be a different festival. For the first time in its 24-year history, the festival will distribute its exhibitions in different locations, all in the Gothic quarter of Barcelona.
Fousion Gallery Barcelona proposes a fine selection of art and performance out of the wolds of a sustainable context in this years edition of the established Drap Art Festival 2020.
It is a pleasure to invite you to the opening of the exhibition, the performance and installations we have planed, like the performances of Karla Kracht at the12th of December at 6 pm.
The main exhibition with the artists selected from the call of artists, Drap-Art’s special guests and artists of the N2 Gallery will be located in the emblematic building of the Borsí, the old Llotja, school of Arts and Crafts on Avinyó street, about to be recovered as the headquarters of the municipal neighbourhood library and a Sociocultural Community Center, thanks to the pressure of the neighbourhood Platform El Borsí per al Barri. It will be a very good opportunity to see it as it is before the rehabilitation work begins.

Capilla – Reial Cercle Artístic
A magical sequence of weird occurrences. Rotating platforms, comic-like objects and characters, loops, sound scape and moving shadows are combined to create a magic experience and letting the viewer dive into the improbable world of ghostly-dark and frightening-dreamy coincidences, where all seems connected and everything and nothing seems possible.
The shadows of the past. The shadows of the present. Our own shadows melting with those of the others.
The ghosts of our own fears... a chaos of interwoven situations...
An performance about the non quantifiable, about very old inner fears and outer projections of common panics.
"STREETlights" by René van Doorn

STREETlights: indoor lighting from used streetlights
In the Netherlands slowly all streetlights are being replaced for LED lights. The old luminaires usually disappear into the landfill. This inspired Dutch designers Esther Derkx and René van Doorn to gather the different shapes of streetlights to transform them to sustainable indoor lighting. The STREETlights are being assembled into new shapes, polished or painted in colour without erasing the traces from the past.
