Made in collaboration with activists Ruth Toledano, Enrique Marty and Ruth Moniel Arias, the exhibition showcases drawings, videos, pictures and paintings, where art is linked to animal rights. The event is part of Capital Animal, a wider animalist festival that will take place in Madrid. Developed along three big rooms, the first part focuses on the fascination that humans have for other animal species, it follows a representation on the violence to which many animals are subjected, ending with a reflection on alternatives to such problematic.
