Punto y Raya or Dots and Lines in English is an abstract art festival in Barcelona which will take place on 25th – 29th of November. This wonderful event will help you discover the creative possibilities of dots and lines in different areas of science, art and communication. The exhibition has more than 76 pieces of art, inspired by these common geometric forms and will be shown in the Centro de Arte de Santa Mónica in Barcelona. This is one not to miss as the admission is completely free. Come to the Punto y Raya Festival – Back to Basics in Barcelona.

A music partiture, a painting by Kandinsky, a shooting star or even a simple map can be drawn by simple strokes like dots or lines. You’ll find creative artistic expressions like videos, performances, workshops, conferences, projections and installations. This festival explores the ultimate synthesis of the form·movement duality in different spheres of human endeavour. Due to the simplicity of its criteria, it uses abstraction’s prime matter to reveal the limitations and achievements of our representation systems.

The dot·line is the ultimate grain of our universe and of the sense we make of it; it’s the primordial identification of all that exists; the essence of that which is matterless but builds up matter, of what is imperceptible but allows us to recognise all perceptible things. But in the symbolic dimension the dot·line ceases to be an end in itself to become a representation of human thought.

Discover some of the most creative expressions of contemporary culture in the Centro de Arte Santa Mónica: a spectacular art centre where you can discover the power and limits of technology, ideas, projections, investigations and several materials. Let your senses run wild and see with your own eyes that a sound can be a colour, a line  a dot or many other things.
