Exhibition [MEMORIES. Life through home movies]

Description

December 3, 2025 - June 7, 2026

An exhibition that explores the reasons why we film ourselves and the evolution of technology, from the video camera to the mobile phone.
The exhibition celebrates shared everyday life and family audiovisual materials, with common or celebratory scenes that evolve and become memories for future generations.

For over a century, home movies have been capturing fragments of daily life and have become an image bank of undeniable anthropological, sociological, and historical value.
Home movies have shaped audiovisual memory banks, with their own visual characteristics capable of creating a new cinematic language in which technical errors and imperfections become distinctive elements. In contemporary home videos, these characteristics are maintained in digital format, recorded by our mobile phones, shared on social networks, and stored in the cloud: more than a memory bank, it has now become another form of communication, shaped by the dynamics of the internet.

This exhibition brings together previously unseen and, at times, counter-hegemonic narratives and films about past and present eras and customs. The tour will delve into the relationships between image, reality, and memory, and examine our relationship with the camera.
