<![CDATA[Voces Dislocadas, Memorias Otras: Prof. Laia Quílez, visiting professor at the Mercè Rodoreda Chair]]>Universitats. New York, 20/03/2023
Documentary cinema can be a loudspeaker, a record, a complaint, or a tribute, and simultaneously establish itself as absolute truth, an ellipsis, or a stinging question about the world we inhabit and that inhabits us. Under the same language, that of non-fiction, we can sculpt discourses of a different nature, even conflicting ones, and therefore build, for the present and also for the future, some, other and diverse memories.

<![CDATA[Special feature on Catalan literature in Hyperion: on the Future of Aesthetics]]>Literatura. USA, 03/02/2023
The magazine Hyperion: on the Future of Aesthetics is concerned with aesthetics, with the value of art and the ways in which it can be transformed and renewed, as well as applied criticism — philosophically-oriented essays that are evaluative of specific artists and specific works of art in every genre (from poetry to visual art to cinema et cetera). Hyperion is published by Contra Mundum Press whose primary aim is to publish translations of writers who in their use of form and style deviate significantly from more programmatic and spurious forms of experimentation. Such writing attests to the volatile nature of modernism.
