STUDENT EXHIBITION
“Misfit Manifesto”
Gabriel Virgilio Luciani curated a group show primarily directed toward new 1st-year students, providing a platform to exhibit work in the city of Barcelona.
The theme of the show was the notion of alternativeness.
What does it mean to be abnormal, off-kilter, dissident, strange, bizarre, weird, or odd? What normative canons do we base ourselves on to determine whether or not we fit in? An elegy to the misfits…
The activity was open to the public.
