Tapies Foundation, Barcelona
We invite you to a participatory workshop at the Fundació Antoni Tàpies that encourages visitors to engage with the artist’s works from their own personal experience — no prior artistic or theoretical knowledge required. Rather than focusing on art history or analysis, this session invites a dialogue through feeling: - What do I see? What do I feel? What does this work awaken in me? What would I like to express in response? Using the principles of art therapy, participants will first connect with selected works through emotion and intuition. In the second part of the workshop, each person will create their own piece inspired by that experience — exploring painting, collage, music, body movement, poetry, and more. The goal is to transform the museum visit into a space of personal reflection, creativity, and emotional expression, where art becomes a mirror for inner dialogue and self-discovery.
