Laboratories: Insights into the Permanent Collection. Miquel Navarro

In this edition of Laboratories, the series of educational exhibitions devoted to works belonging to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao Collection, Miquel Navarro offers us the possibility to examine his work from a different perspective, through the interaction with his work Your World, Your City (Tu mundo, tu ciudad), 2003, within the activities carried out during the exhibition.

Miquel Navarro (Mislata, Valencia, 1945) is considered one of the most personal artists in contemporary sculpture. Your World, Your City, 2003, is a work created by the artist with a strong educational purpose, in which the public's interaction with the elements that make up the work and its continuous construction and deconstruction process are fundamental premises for him. Navarro's ciudades (cities) generate spaces to compare ideas. In his artistic trajectory, the sculptor has reexamined our idea of space, the construction of places and our own body as a singular measurement of the human and the city. His sculptural landscapes, inspired on the urban fabric, are made up of architectural elements that act as formal vehicles to experience the landscape of the city.
