FIRST EDITION KRONOS ART BCN

In this first edition, glancing through the PAST, we will find works from great artists of the artistic movements which changed the conception of art. These artists include: Andy Warhol, Antoni Tàpies, Francis Bacon, Georges Braque, Joan Miró, Karel Appel, Man Ray, Nam June Paik, Oteiza, Salvador Dalí, Sonia Delaunay and Wolf Vostell.

In the PRESENT we will find artworks by contemporary artists who stand out for their influence and commitment to generating a change in the art of the past, inspiring and evolving towards a new future of art. These artists include: Anne Roig, Banksy, Befaco, Boris Hoppek, Btoy, Dave Cooper, Gino Rubert, Ilia Mayer, Jarmo Lampela, Joaquín Jara, Justin Case, Kenor, Luis Gordillo, Martí Ruids, Miss Van, Pablo Milicua, Ramón Maiden, Victor Castillo and Victor Jaenada, among others.

The FUTURO will be commissioned by the children of primary education who are invited to participate in this first edition of Kronos Art BCN. They will be in charge of giving us their interpretation of the passage of time. A perfect opportunity both for them and for us to be able to see and express, without filters, the same reality.

In short, “time” has been, is now, and will be vital for the history of art and its evolution. Art movements are able to break with the past, condition our perception of art in the future, and excite us in the present.

Kronos Art BCN, invites us to take a walk to this particular journey through important artworks, in which formats, epochs, techniques, genres, styles and disciplines are combined, and in which linear time is disordered, opening before us a portal of time in Art.
