Anna Moreno. The Third Twist
The exhibition The Third Torsion presents recent works by Anna Moreno that reflect on temporality through utopian architecture and the potential of speculative imagination. The central piece is The Terminal Beach, part of a trilogy that contraposes projects by Ricardo Bofill with short stories by James Graham Ballard.
The Terminal Beach , a film co-directed with Brazilian filmmaker Bernardo Zanotta , documents -in the form of a road movie- the current state of a nomadic settlement built in 1979 by Ricardo Bofill in the Algerian Sahara, commissioned by President Houari Boumédienne. The construction belongs to the architect’s utopian period, when his studio, Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura (RBTA), operated as an amalgam of architects, poets, painters, and other creators. What was intended to be a complex conceived alongside modernist principles remained unfinished, and today reveals the tension between the dream of that era and the reality of modern colonial legacies . The trilogy has received support from Amarte Fonds, Mondriaan Fonds, Stroom Den Haag, VEGAP, Hangar, and Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura.
