'HIDING MAPS'

Lecture by Aniol Macau and Francesc Ruiz Abad


YARAT Contemporary Art Space is pleased to inform you that two young artists from Barcelona, Aniol Macau and Francesc Ruiz Abad, will hold a lecture entitled 'Hiding Maps' in YAY Gallery on July 25th. 'Hiding Maps' will be a lecture about hitch-hiking and alternative ways of traveling as a way to create experiences and reflexions about our society.

Aniol Macau and Francesc Ruiz Abad are doing a six months project/travel by hitchhiking. During this derive they will abandon control and join drivers wherever they are going. The journey will have no clear destination and during the trip they will produce a substantial analog archive made by interviews, audio landscapes, drawings, documentary photography and small sculptures.

One of the stops during their trip will be Baku, where the two artist will come to YAY Gallery and will tell us about hitch-hiking, his old projects and how traveling had influenced their work.
