The Fundació Joan Miró's Espai 13 programme "When Lines Are Time", consisted of four exhibition projects and a symposium that was also conceived as an exhibition context. projects by Rubén Grilo, Sofia Hulté, El Palomar and Rosana Antolí: artists who establish modes of doing through different approaches to what time means in art. "When Lines Are Time" is also a book that revolves around a series of asynchronous dialogues in which the writing is of this moment and also of some time ago, in which the elements eschew a linear structure, becoming part of an unstable emotional context. Past, present, future. Moments, experiences, memories and desires. Engaging with the time factor in contemporary art entails reconsidering modes of doing. It entails thinking about the meaning of stages that precede the production and exhibition of the work, thinking about what will happen afterwards, understanding the performative capacity of specific situations and moments, projecting ourselves into an indefinite future. History and desire as an impossible interval in which to pose questions through experimentation. 00Exhibition: Fundació Joan Miró, Barcelona, Spain (01.10.2015-11.09.2016)
