The exhibition "More Than Dis(Play). A travel to the Art Toys universe" is open at Topic

2017.10.24

The exhibition More Than Dis(Play) – A travel to the Art Toys universe will be open between October 21st and March 4th at Topic (Tolosa).

There are times in life when a series of special conditions make the moment an occasion and the medium the message. More Than Dis(Play) was born in the iconic Topic museum, with its own conceptual discourse on the Art Toy universe and exhibited to disseminate its message.

Why a temporary exhibition of Art Toys in a place like the Tolosa International Puppet Center? The combination of puppets and Art Toys is not by chance. People have always felt the need to interact with their humans, to convey their ideas and their own stories. Here is where the history of puppets and Art Toys intertwine, choosing different paths to the same end. For puppets, it is a theatrical form as old as mankind. Art Toys, the children of the late 1990s, the peak of the Internet, social networks and other types of technologies and applications, are born with their own movement. They already have a life of their own, an incorporated history.
