Special Projects


Six Murcia-based artists were invited to delve into a certain niche of 1980s art history -a decade that saw the first institutional practices developed along certain prescribed socio-cultural lines. The MoCHA Sessions brings part of the archive of the short-lived Museum of Contemporary Hispanic Art, New York (1985-1990) to Spain for the first time. MoCHA emerged during the rise of institutional multiculturalism, showcasing the work of artists of "Hispanic" descendent, who were deemed otherwise under-represented in the mainstream. The archive has been used as a catalyst for speculating on the origins and future of many of the recognised parameters in contemporary art -from identity politics to institutional critique. The result is six consecutive exhibitions in Espacio AV in Murcia, which change throughout the duration of Manifesta 8.

The MoCHA Sessions have been curated by Yolanda Riquelme in collaboration with ACAF.

Architecture: nOffice
Artists: Gonzalo Ballester, Alfonso Escudero, Jeleton, Irene Lucas y Christoph Euler, Ana Martínez y Rosell Meseguer.
