can framis museum.

The Can Framis Museum is one of the Vila Casas projects. It was inaugurated in April 2009. More than 300 artworks are exposed, no matter if it’s a painting, a sculpture or photographs, from the 60′s until now. The artists were born or were residents in Catalonia. The Can Framis factory which is located in 22@ was converted into a museum. It was one of the most important textile factories.

“Monologue, dialogue and concept are the pretext that allows us to trace, once again, a speech around the collection of the Vila Casas Foundation collection. A pretext that puts us, as a starting point, in front of questions such as the coexistence of different authors or of the same author with himself and his different creative moments. And that moves us to consider how the dialogue between the different disciplines and creative languages ​​that coexist in the present day becomes.

Opposition, juxtaposition, concentration, dispersion or even absence can vary, transform or modify meanings, values ​​or sense, but also enrich and complete concepts, propose us again, preserve our convictions or revise them. With the full consciousness that building stories is interpreting our context and making it expose our subjective point of view, we consider the current journey through the collection.

It is a personal journey, an itinerary that forces us to shelter from a collection that has nurtured over the years moved by the most intimate concerns. An open and changing proposal, young, if it will, but reflecting and reflection, which emphasizes the works and their authors and, why not?, in the role that the figure of the collector takes at the moment that we live.”

—ANTONI VILA CASAS

About the Foundation: Formed by three museums and a large exhibition space. Destined to the conservation and exhibition of the artistic background.
