Selected by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, the display is the fourth and final instalment in a series of exhibitions highlighting ”la Caixa” Collection, Spain’s leading collection of contemporary art.

The artist and writer Verónica Gerber Bicecci (b. 1981, Mexico) explores the effects of human and environmental catastrophe on landscape and language in this free display of photography, video and installation.

In the Eye of Bambi brings together works by Carlos Amorales, Bleda y Rosa, Carmen Calvo, VictoriaCivera, Sophie Ristelhueber and Concha García, drawn from ”la Caixa” Collection.

Accompanying Gerber Bicecci’s selection is an original short story in which the words of Greta Thunberg, Donna Haraway and W. vB. Yeats pepper a cautionary tale of thedestruction of the natural world by humans represented as ‘the creatures with three hands’.
