ROVIRA, XAVIER
The "Authentic Fiction" artistic project investigates the plurality of notions of public, city and regional space, based on a consideration of its limits, its frontiers, the idea of passage and exile and the role of memory as a creator of meaning. It also examines the relationship between work and spectator, between given context and fiction, via the interaction with the spectator provided for by the CD-ROM which goes with the book. The realization of this project grows out of a collaboration between Xavier Rovira and six exhibition centres in different towns in Catalonia.
