Jordi Colomer

Jordi Colomer's (*Barcelona 1962) practice spans film, photography, sculpture and installation, often involving collective participation. All his activity is tinged with a marked performative sense, testing through actions the habitual uses of architecture and urban space. Colomer is interested in the system of representations of the city and our ability to subvert them. From that investigation, underlying themes such as nomadism, the popular imagination, humor, community, suburbia, traditions, fiction and utopia emerge. In 2008, the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume in Paris dedicated a major retrospective to him. Colomer has participated in two editions of Manifesta, in  St. Petersburg  (2014) und Palermo (2018). In 2017, he was chosen to represent the Spanish pavilion at the 57th Venice Biennale. In 2024, he presented the exhibition “Façana Foto Festa Futur Fideus” at MACBA in Barcelona, his most ambitious solo shw to date. The exhibition brought together around fifty works dating from the late 1980s, in various formats including sculpture, collages, photography, video, installations, and live actions. For this exhibition, he received the 2024 City of Barcelona Award for Visual Arts.

Unna

Begleitet wird die Grand Snail Tour von Künstler*innen aus dem Bereich Literatur, Fotografie und Zeichnung, die zeitgleich zum Aufenthalt des Tourmobils, Eindrücke und Reflexionen aus jeweils derselben Stadt sammeln und diese sie visuell oder literarisch ins Bild setzen. So entsteht ein Paratext zur 3-jährigen Tour, der in Form einer Reisechronik, ein Kaleidoskop an Geschichten, Verbindungen, Momentaufnahmen in den 53 Städten der Region als Gleichzeitigkeiten und Ungleichzeitigkeiten zur Grand Snail Tour sichtbar werden lässt.
