Casa Adret – Carrer de Salomó ben Adret, 6, Ciutat Vella, 08002 Barcelona

events Programme

The LABA Live event, held on November 23-24, 2024, marked the culmination of the LABA Barcelona fellowship program, showcasing the work of fellows inspired by classical Jewish texts on the theme of "NIGHT." This event was hosted at Casa Adret, one of Barcelona’s oldest habitable buildings and the central location for LABA Barcelona's activities, situated in the heart of the medieval Jewish quarter.
Key activities included Gathering and Guided Tour towards the venue (CASA Adret), as part of a preformative act by one of the artists, tours of the exhibition, lead by the artists, roundtable discussions, and theatre performances, spanning various artistic disciplines, such as sound art, theatre, and a Ceramic collaborative performance.
A central part of the event addressed the topic of the neglected medieval Jewish cemetery of Montjuïc in Barcelona, through multiple artistic projects that brought attention to its historical and cultural significance, and suggested actions to bring it to public awareness.
