Plato Pamplona

Blasphemy in Plato Pamplona features artists selected from across Europe, the UK and North America, working in media spanning painting, sculpture, performance, photography, installation, illustration and video. It is the first of a series of shows that will visit London, Dublin, Paris and Milan as well as Barcelona.

Transforming an industrial space in the emerging art centre of Plato Pamplona, in Barcelona, Blasphemy questions the limits and meaning of blasphemy in an increasingly secular age. Artists and audiences are encouraged to explore the idea of with whom and with what can we commit blasphemy. Issues such as culture, religion, politics, standards, sex, new technologies, wars, sacrifices and the normalisation of blasphemy are investigated in this provocative and playful show.

A number of artists exhibiting in this show also form part of the Gadje Collective. These include: Alix Marie, Helene Butler, Sydney Southam, Konrad Wyrebek, Leo Cohen, Matthew Miles, Charlotte Kaye, Charles Garcin, Uli Blanchet, Anja Priska and Alice Walter.
