The Museum of Contemporary Art Gas Natural Fenosa (MACUF) presents the exhibition of Jordi Bernado, Fragments for a cronotopography of  the simulacrum, a selection of 80 photographs of various works of Bernadó, now relocated and regrouped in a new itinerary. The images of a large format are distributed in four parts and an epilogue, where the concepts of cartography, representation and staging become important and cut across each of the images that are part of the different sequences of the exhibition "some pieces of the Map "Borges" "… and to a stone monkey", "Space and representation" and "Narratives of aseptic space".The exhibition is not to be a retrospective of the work of the author, nor a selection of representative works of stylistic and thematic traits of the author. Fragments for a cronotopography of the simulacrum attempts to show the complex and unique relationship of Jordi Bernado with the territory and the space in which Western culture has been developed up to the present day, as well as a  dialogue established by these representations with the viewer.Bernadó's work is based on the contemporary concept of simulacrum, this insistent practice of  the mock imitation that is made of one thing as if it was true and correct. Bernadó creates reasonable doubt in the viewer of to what extent  the images presented are a realization of what we are seeing or if it is just a simulacrum. Suggested images seem to be true and verifiable, but when the photographers choose what they want to portray and how they  want to capture, photograph it is no longer a pure representation that becomes a transformation or reinvention. The viewer's eye is the one that has to find out who is real and true meaning of the image.

From the November 10th  will be possible to visit the instalation Written in the celestial bodies, created exclusively  for the Crystal Palace in Madrid's Retiro Park, where Soledad Sevilla reproduces the vault and the walls of this building through an aluminum frame and a series of polycarbonate panels that recreate the image of a night sky in which float like stars randomly arranged  various language signs
