Visita a la expo "Pensar la belleza" del CCCB

Buenas de nuevo a los gatos curiosos! Después de un parón forzoso, por causa mayor, vamos a reiniciar de nuevo las actividades con la exposición del CCCB " Pensar la belleza". **Una exposición que ofrece un recorrido crítico por la trayectoria de los diferentes cánones de belleza a lo largo de la historia**. De forma interactiva , os animo a que veamos ( visita comentada con auriculares) , cómo la industria de la cosmética, el diseño y la comercialización de productos condicionan la visión sobre nuestro propio cuerpo. **La entrada a la exposición es gratuita ese día porque son puertas abiertas.** **Después se puede ir a tomar un fresco para comentar la exposición.** Os espero en la entrada del centro de cultura contemporánea de Barcelona el domingo 31 de junio a las 11:10.

CHRONIQUES

Informació Chroniques Peeping Tom Creació i direcció Gabriela Carrizo Sala Gran Una metamorfosi corporal en una dimensió abissal i poètica Chroniques és un viatge en el temps que es desenvolupa en una sèrie de cròniques o capítols curts que parlen d'inicis i de finals, de llocs llunyans, de l'absència de límits i del que és desconegut. Chroniques té lloc en una transició incerta entre el que hem viscut i el que estem a punt d'experimentar. Un paisatge que es va formant a mesura que els esdeveniments ocorren; com en un camp arqueològic on es revelen capes superposades de memòries i històries d'altres cossos i d'altres temps. Peeping Tom, còmplice habitual del TNC, torna a endinsar-nos en els seus mons foscos i onírics després de presentar-nos muntatges com Kind, Triptych i S 62°58’, W 60°39’ amb gran èxit de crítica i de públic. ENTRADES https://www.tnc.cat/ca/chroniques NOTES IMPORTANTS: Cada participant gestiona la compra de la seva entrada. Us recordem que aquest grup no té cap interès comercial, és una simple trobada d'aficionats, apassionats, addictes i bojos pel teatre. Donat que les fotos de perfil poden fer impossible la identificació dels assistents, cal que busqueu activament l'organitzador/a de l'event.

The New Fatherhood - A conversation about the changing face of fatherhood

***[BUY THE BOOK HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/the-new-fatherhood/)*** Fatherhood is changing. A new generation of dads are rejecting the idea that being a parent should be treated like a side quest, and instead leaning all the way in. But what happens when men do that? And what still stands in our way? **Kevin Maguire** has spent five years exploring this question through his newsletter and community, [The New Fatherhood](https://www.thenewfatherhood.org/), and now in his first book. In this conversation, he talks about the shifting face of fatherhood—the identity crisis, the unexpected loneliness, and why the dads who are willing to be honest about all of it are building something genuinely new. Kevin will be in conversation with writer and journalist **Aaron Shulman**. About the speaker: **Kevin Maguire** is a writer, coach, and the founder of The New Fatherhood—a newsletter and community read by over 22,000 parents around the world. His first book, *The New Fatherhood*, is published by Hachette on May 28, 2026. He previously spent 15 years in advertising and tech, working with brands including Google, HBO, and Amazon, and lives in Barcelona with his wife and two children.

Celebrating the Year of Gaudí: An Evening with author Gijs van Hensbergen

In 2026, Barcelona marks the centenary of Antoni Gaudí's death — a year in which the city has also been designated World Capital of Architecture by UNESCO, placing it at the heart of a global conversation about one of history's most extraordinary creative minds. To celebrate, we are welcoming one of the world's leading authorities on Gaudí and Barcelona's modernist architecture for an evening of conversation, stories and discovery. **Gijs van Hensbergen** is a Dutch art historian, Hispanist and author whose work has brought Gaudí to readers around the world. Trained at the Courtauld Institute of Art, he wrote the first critical biography of Antoni Gaudí, widely praised as the definitive account of the man and his work. He has since written on Gaudí's Sagrada Família for Bloomsbury, appeared on CBS 60 Minutes, BBC Radio 4 and TV3, and lectured at institutions including the Museo del Prado, the National Gallery London and the Reina Sofía. His writing has appeared in The Guardian, The Times, the Wall Street Journal and El País, among many others. This evening, in conversation with moderator **Nick Lloyd**, Gijs will take us behind the stones and spires — into the life, obsessions and genius of Gaudí, and what it means to be in Barcelona during this once-in-a-century year. Nick Lloyd is a writer, historian, and founder of Spanish Civil War Tours, a project dedicated to bringing the stories of the conflict to life through guided visits to key sites across Catalonia and Aragón. Over the years, his work has helped connect countless visitors with Spain’s complex past, weaving together the political, cultural, and personal dimensions of the war. This event is made possible thanks to ***Seven Dreams of Gaudí***, an ambitious concert project co-created and produced by Renée Cooke, premiering at the Palau de la Música Catalana as part of the Year of Gaudí celebrations. Find out more at [sevendreamsofgaudi.com](http://sevendreamsofgaudi.com/). **[ORDER GIJS BOOKS HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/browse?s=Gijs+van+Hensbergen&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1)**
