Private tour of new exhbition

Follow along a guided tour by María Inés Rodríguez of the exhibition "Cross-reading. Monotony is nice. Oriol Vilanova with Walter Leblanc, Charlotte Posenenske, Peter Roehr".

During his residency at the Walter & Nicole Leblanc Foundation in autumn 2025, Vilanova immersed himself in the foundation’s collection and archive. This research led him to a pivotal moment in Leblanc’s trajectory: his participation in Serielle Formationen, the pioneering exhibition organised by Paul Maenz and Peter Roehr in May 1967 at the Studio Gallery in Frankfurt. The exhibition foregrounded seriality across Conceptual Art, Minimalism, Pop Art, Op Art, and ZERO. Taking the archive as his point of departure, Vilanova brings together three of the artists who originally took part in the Serielle Formationen: Charlotte Posenenske, Peter Roehr, and Walter Leblanc. Echoing Leblanc’s investigations into repetition, light, and structure, Vilanova reflects on the exhibition format itself, on how images are curated, displayed, transmitted, and how these gestures shape collective imagination. The exhibition extends the Foundation’s curatorial mission of reactivating Walter Leblanc’s legacy through contemporary perspectives. This exhibition also anticipates Vilanova’s participation in the Spanish Pavilion at the 61st Venice Biennale in 2026.
