Playgrounds

This exhibition focuses on a space that's rarely the star of shows that fill up museums: the playground. With nearly 300 pieces spanning genres (photography, film, video, sculpture, installations...), 'Playgrounds' offers a journey through these play areas and their capacity to transform society with works by the likes of Goya, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Giacometti and Xabier Rivas. From the playground’s fun beginnings to when free time started being gobbled up by consumerism, the exhibition takes on the anti-productive attitude, the right to be lazy and not do anything in the face of the frenetic pace of modern life.
