Full programme of the fourth Talking Galleries Barcelona Symposium, hold in MACBA 2-3 November 2015.
The edition will examine four main issues: how galleries relate to art fairs
and to artists; the gallery programme; and the online presence. On Monday new appointed MACBA Director Ferran Barenblit will offer a brief introduction, and then Marc Spiegler will
open the symposium with a keynote speech exploring the major shifts that affect the lives of galleries today. Annette Schönholzer, along with three international art fair directors, will then expand on art fairs and their modus operandi, by focusing on what they expect from galleries.
In this regard, gallerist Annamária Molnár will encompass the crucial dilemmas that young and emerging galleries usually face when implementing their art fair strategy. The afternoon will
also centre around artists and what they expect from their gallerists, by way of conversation between Elizabeth Dee and artists Dora
