The Es Baluard's director, Cristina Ros, introduces "The murmur of the world: from informalism to the new abstractions, 1950-2010" , the exhibition that hosts the museum from September 2010 to January 2011 curated by Juan Manuel Bonet. "The murmur of the world" is one of the “Views of Es Baluard's collection”, the series of exhibitions with their respective publications that reflect the diversity of readings that can be made of all museum collections.
This is a look at painting, specifically the abstract painting that predominates in Es Baluard’s collection to some extent. Even so, Bonet’s analysis highlights the conjunction of two periods that mirrored one another. He speaks of the "continuity of interests and concerns" among the generation that took part in the abstract revolution in Spain in the 1950s and the artists who came from abroad during that time to heighten or serve as a reference for the rising tide of informalism in our country, to provide "continuity" in the 1980s with another generation that would chart a course to today’s new abstractions.
