What the talk will cover
The book La construcción del marco. Reflexiones en el contexto de la pintura actual brings together essays by seven artists, academics, and researchers—including the speakers—who examine the frame not just as a physical boundary, but as a conceptual element that interacts with the artwork. Published by Ediciones Asimétricas, the book questions its role in shaping the perception of painting and its influence on contemporary visual discourse. The discussion will explore these ideas from both artistic practice and theory.
Who is taking part
The event will feature:
- Susana Palés: Visual artist and educator.
- Alberto Gálvez: Artist and researcher.
- Joël Mestre: Painter, professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Universitat Politècnica de València, and coordinator of the book. His work explores the relationship between painting and its spatial context.
