MACBA moves into theoretical territory with this group exhibition that aims to investigate modernity in contemporary culture and question its place in artistic practice. The exhibition brings together nearly 40 artists, including Dan Graham, Falke Pisano and Gordon Matta-Clarke, and art collectives, who explore the concept through works in mediums including relief sculpture and film projection. Issues tackled in the exhibition include the production of space, the role of contemporary architecture, the idea of an aesthetic language and the authority of authorship. The underlying difference between modernity and modernism is addressed through examples of modern work influenced by modernity. R.C.

This show brings together 15 international artists to present their views on the role of text and narrative in contemporary art. The exhibition consists of proposals from each of the artists that will, along with talks and seminars, create a forum in which words and their relationship to the modern art production are discussed. Artists including Will Holder, the founder of DotDotDot magazine, Falke Pisano, whose work engages with problems of language and text, conceptual New York artist Seth Price, and the Bernadette Corporation collective, whose work investigates strategies of art production, all present text pieces. The museum has created an “active space for reading” where visitors will be able to take in the written proposals from the artists involved. Rob Curran
