Curatorial context

The exhibition 'Ana Marín' showcased the personal work of artist Ana Marín, a sculptor specializing in the tactile interpretation of heritage for two decades. The exhibition presented 15 sculptures that delve into the multifaceted nature of the feminine, moving beyond conventional expressions of beauty to explore themes of intimacy, harmony, creation, and primordial memory. Marín's artistic journey led her to prehistoric Venus figures, which she interprets as 'Mater-Ágora' – symbols of creation, concord, and the nurturing 'mother nature'. The exhibition was thematically divided into three areas: 'Ámbito I, Eva. La feminidad simbólica', featuring figurative and realistic forms to express intimacy and creation; 'Ámbito II, Venus. La diosa representada', which shifted to abstract language with works inspired by Magdalenian Venus figures, delving into primordial memory; and 'Ámbito III, Mater Ágora. El espacio que muestra caminos de Paz', where form became a receptacle for concepts of accessibility and inclusion, with a central piece conceived for large-scale representation. Ana Marín, born in Barcelona, has previously exhibited her work in various solo and group exhibitions, including at the Museo de la Inmigración de Cataluña and collective shows internationally.
