The exhibition documents the work of the Enric Miralles Foundation with the focus on the urban intervention project BCN RE.SET which has been created for the occasion of the 300 anniversary of the siege and conquest of the city of Barcelona by the Bourbon army. Architect Benedetta Tagliabue (EMBT) and the stage director Àlex Ollé (La Fura dels Baus) invited six international architects to create ephemeral installations, as significant interventions in the city of Barcelona this year. Each associating different themes linked to the commemoration of Tricentenari BCN organized by the City Council and curated by Toni Soler: Identity, Diversity, Freedom, Democracy, Memory and Europe.

Some of Barcelona’s most symbolic public spaces were changed thanks to the design of the teams of Benedetta Tagliabue and Àlex Ollé (Spain), Odile Decq (France), Peter Cook (United Kingdom) & Yael Reisner (Israel), Grafton Architects (Ireland), ETH Zürich & Urban-Think Tank (Switzerland/Venezuela), Anupama Kundoo (India/ Australia) and Urbanus (China), in conjunction with some of Barcelona’s leading schools of architecture and design: Elisava, UIC Universitat Internacional de Cataluña, IAAC Institut of Advanced Architecture of Barcelona, Lasalle School of Architecture & Institut del Teatre.
