The exhibition Pleas of Resistance traverses more than twenty-five years of practice by the artist Carlos Motta, who consistently engages with the body and sexual dissidence as a terrain of experimentation and political contestation.
His early explorations of photographic self-portraiture are shown alongside his most recent performances and video installations. The exhibition explores the magnitude of Motta’s artistic research and its implacable rigor in relation to the archive, interrogating its violence, its silencing and its desires. Motta’s work challenges the imposition of Eurocentric epistemologies – from the time of the conquest and colonial period in the Americas to the present day – and considers the legacy of religion as a perpetrator and disturbing vehicle of coloniality.

Tickets were issued quickly. A bit cheaper than at the venue or on the official website. Although there were time slots and quite a few people inside, it wasn&#39;t too crowded. The building is quite unique and well worth a visit.

La Pedrera – Casa Milà

The black iron railing patterns and the top floor of the facade are the highlights. Compared with Casa Mil&agrave; and Sagrada Familia, Casa Mil&agrave; is a bit plain. It is best to visit Mil&agrave; first among the three treasures of Gaud&iacute;, then Casa Mil&agrave;, and Sagrada Familia. You will feel that the experience is getting more and more exciting and shocking.

The entrance is small, in the city center. Be sure to get the audio guide first. Each painting has a story. I spent three hours looking at it carefully! You can walk to Casa Mil&agrave; and see the scenery of Barcelona along the way! It&#39;s a great time!
