The Anthropophagic Davis Lisboa Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona is a miniature museum with a permanent collection, inaugurated in 2009. It functions as a sculpture of the readymade and a collective work of art. A non-profit artistic project, it organises and produces exhibitions, fosters research, and promotes emerging practice. The Davis Museum also stages itinerant exhibitions at cultural centres, museums, and institutions, nationally and internationally, generating debate, thought, and reflection. Through submissions from emerging artists around the world, the museum selects, presents, studies, circulates, and preserves new work.
The Davis Museum holds 25 works in its permanent collection, posts 730 works on Facebook, and has selected 86 artists to participate in the project.
In this exhibition, titled Els Colors del Foc (The Colours of Fire), four works from the collection were selected around a shared element: the colours of fire. Debora Alanna exhibits Door of Perception. Phyllis Alter shows Blue Cup; Sonia Burel shows Untitled; Edward Lightner shows Day 2, Day 5, and Day 147.
