This exhibition has its roots in the invitation received by Xabier Salaberria  to curate a collective show on the new premises of Halfhouse, Barcelona. After nine years of business, Halfhouse opened a new chapter in 2018 with a change of venue and a cycle of artist-curated collective exhibitions. Following the respective exhibitions organised by the artists Luis Bisbe and David Bestué, this latest offering has been overseen by Xabier Salaberria with the participation of Ainara Elgoibar, Oier Etxeberria, Gabriela Kraviez, Jorge Satorre and Xabier Salaberria himself.

The particularities of each artist’s body of work constitute the starting point of the exhibition methodology. The fact that all of their different approaches have gradually come together, until such a time as they have to share the same space, has opened up a horizon of possibilities—the possibility of being suitable or unsuitable, of comfort or discomfort, and even of friendliness and hostility between the artist’s methods.

In that sense, the exhibition configuration will be transformed as each of the artist’s offerings evolves. This idea revolves around the option to adapt each work or not to the space, and the shared staging of the show.

The exhibition will be held between March and April 2019. Reflections on the exhibition journey will continue to be made following its opening, in continuation of an exercise that has characterised the collective process from the outset.
