CASANOVA-DRÀCULA

dracula casanova brWith Story of My Death, Albert Serra established a lucid connection between these two myths of Western culture , and also linked them to the experience of artistic creation.

Seduction and vampirism may be the defining motifs of artistic practice, understood from the perspectives of both the creator and the receiver of the work. And these are the areas which the series aims to explore, taking inspiration from Serra's work.

There will be a screening and a review of the film, a perspective and discourse by Vicenç Altaió regarding all aspects of contemporary art, a look at the emergence of Serra in the world of visual arts at Documenta 13 in Kassel (2012), and a look through the eyes of two photographers on the presence of Casanova and Dracula in our surroundings.
