An Anthology of Glances: A workshop on body awareness and visual attention by Mia Štark with Ana Prvački

Fundació Mies van der Rohe collaborates with Forecast to host artists Mia Štark and Ana Prvački in Barcelona, as part of Forecast’s mentorship program. Forecast offers artists and creative thinkers from anywhere in the world the chance to work with accomplished mentors towards bringing their projects to fruition. It transcends neatly defined disciplines and genres to provide insight into creative production processes and carve out space for the questions on the minds of the next generation of trailblazers.

Mia Štark and Ana Prvački will continue their ongoing research in Barcelona as a part of the project called An Anthology of Glances. Fascinated by absurd and humorous occurrences in everyday life, Štark is developing a performative piece inspired by the media-consumption habits of a specific age group in her native Croatia or, more precisely, her grandmother’s reliance on TV for information.The work meanders around the topic of how we watch, look at, listen to, and receive news of any kind. An Anthology of Glances is at once a comment as well as a proposition on how to consume information more carefully.

Fundació Mies van der Rohe and Forecast are members of the European architecture platform LINA, a network connecting prominent cultural players with emerging practitioners and thinkers in architecture.

Join us in the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion on 9 December at 4 p.m. with Freo Majer, founder and artistic director of Forecast, Mia Štark and Ana Prvački, for a workshop on body awareness and visual attention, where the audience will move with the artists through the Pavilion’s space.

You can book your place here.
