30 anys de música normal Gràcia Territori Sonor 1996-2026

The first monographic exhibition devoted to Gràcia Territori Sonor, an association promoting experimental music in Barcelona and Catalonia, at La Virreina Centre de la Imatge.

The exhibition traces the trajectory of Gràcia Territori Sonor, an association-based project dedicated to disseminating and promoting experimental music in Barcelona and Catalonia. It is the first monographic exhibition devoted to this organisation and brings together a substantial part of its audiovisual, photographic and editorial archive, arranged to trace its activity comprehensively.

The collective was founded by Víctor Nubla, Juan Crek, Bel·lo Torras, Claudi Feliu and Sergi Doladé, with Io Casino as narrator. Since then it has promoted a range of activities, including performances, workshops and talks, as well as the publication of records and magazines and collaboration in the publishing of books.

Among its main initiatives are Microtopies, an international call for sound miniatures; the Laboratori Àgape, where musicians, poets and cooks create pieces that combine those three languages; and the Dispositiu LEM, an international experimental music gathering linked to Gràcia. The organisation also runs the programme Música i Geografia on Ràdio Gràcia. The visit is of interest to anyone wishing to see at first hand the reach of this work within the sound scene.
