Es Baluard presents, within the activities around the collection of the museum, a conversation between the writer Biel Mesquida and the goldsmith Luisa del Valle, personal friends of the artist and companions in their stays on the island. Both will share their testimony with the public to approach the work of José Pérez Ocaña, character and creator, performer and LGBTQ activist, who was also an icon of resistance of the Franco dictatorship during the Transition.

This artist is currently in the exhibition of the permanent collection of Es Baluard with the video work “Ocaña, der engel der in der qualsingt” by Gérard Courant made in 1979 and complements the Gender and Transgender line developed by the museum.
