In the Eye of Bambi

The last of four special publications to accompany a year-long display of works from Barcelona's "la Caixa" Collection at Whitechapel Gallery, selected by and featuring newly-commissioned fictional works by some of the most original English and Spanish-language writers working today.

Description

Established in Barcelona in 1985 by "la Caixa" Banking Foundation, the "la Caixa" Collection features over 1,000 works of international contemporary art from the last 30 years, including artists such as Antoni Tàpies, Joseph Beuys, Cornelia Parker and Doris Salcedo.

For a major four-part display running from 2019-20, Whitechapel Gallery has partnered with "la Caixa" to showcase key pieces from the Collection. Each of the four 'chapters' is curated by a contemporary writer, who will also contribute a brand new work of fiction in response to their selection. Each display is accompanied by a fully-illustrated catalogue featuring the works displayed and the new text.

The final chapter, on display in Spring 2020, will be selected by Valeria Luiselli (b. Mexico City, 1983; lives in New York). She has written for The New York Times, McSweeney's, Dazed & Confused and Granta, and her published books include the novels Faces in the Crowd (2012), The Story of My Teeth (2015) and Lost Children Archive (2019), which has been longlisted for the 2019 Booker prize.
