On 29 October, the installation of three representative cities by Miquel Navarro was inaugurated at Mobility City in Zaragoza: “City 84-85”, from Miquel Navarro Foundation, “A city in your hands” (1998), from the Generalitat Valenciana, and “Fluid in the city” (2003), which comes from the IVAM (Institut Valencià d’Art Modern).
This installation forms part of the exhibition ‘Metropolis lunar’, curated by the art historian and patron of the Fundació Lola Durán and which has a double venue in the Fundación Ibercaja: the Museo Goya, where, from 3 October, almost forty pieces by the most universal artist of Mislata are on display; and the aforementioned building in the Aragonese capital, which was designed by the prestigious Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid for the International Exposition Zaragoza 2008.
Under the metallic grids of the so-called ‘Zaha Hadid Bridge’, whose innovative steel and fibreglass structure is shaped like a gladiolus stretched over the river Ebro, visitors will be able to enjoy the three sculptural landscapes by Miquel Navarro, in a perfect fusion of art and avant-garde architecture, until 2 March 2025.
In addition, children will have the opportunity to interact with Navarro’s art, as one of the cities on display, ‘A city in your hands’, which is continually touring the world, has a playful character and its design allows children visiting the exhibition to play and interact with it to create their own city and thus modify the artist’s initial proposal.
