Génesis: Fotografía de un Futuro Alternativo
A science fiction photography exhibition born from the creative encounter between two image artisans within the Foto Experimental community. Together, Sibux and Jordi Bofill Cunillera imagine a dystopian future, where society survives on the margins of high technology and with limited resources. In this scenario, photographic communities play a key role, bringing together photographers, chemists, scientists, artists, and environmental defenders. They rescue ancient photographic processes, using sunlight to print on plant surfaces, creating photosensitive objects from natural products, and reconditioning mechanical cameras. The exhibition presents four photographic techniques that capture the essence of light and its relationship with our environment: Cyanotypes, Anthotypes, and Chlorotypes created by Sibux, and Instant Solargraphy captured with a lens by JB Cunillera.
An exhibition that invites reflection on the future of images, creative resilience, and the connection between art, science, and nature.
Discover Espai Golfes
The name Golfes refers to the space beneath the roof of a building, often filled with memories and hidden treasures. It perfectly symbolizes our intention: a place to bring life, visibility, and renewed circulation to high-value artistic proposals. This space was created with the aim of encouraging the exchange of exhibitions between photography festivals, both local and international, and to foster the global circulation of exhibitions. This initiative seeks to internationalize the careers of photographers, broaden their reach to new audiences, and generate a community network among festivals, creating a space of mutual support that promotes the development of the sector. In addition, we are strongly committed to ecological and economic sustainability in the production and circulation of exhibitions, promoting the responsible use of materials and the conscious mobility of artworks. Golfes aims to become a model that integrates creativity, inclusive cooperation, and environmental responsibility within the world of photography.
Floor Plan
We provide the floor plan to help visualize the layout and potential of the space. This plan offers a comprehensive guide to the organization of the venue: the areas designated for photographic exhibitions and the zones intended for public circulation, allowing the space to be adapted to various curatorial proposals. Making the plan available aims not only to optimize the setup of future exhibitions, but also to inspire artists, curators, and festivals to imagine new ways of inhabiting and transforming the space, creating unique experiences of encounter between photography and its audience.
Golfes is conceived as a flexible, dynamic space open to collective creativity.
