Sensing Sculpture: Smell
Smells surround us always and everywhere. The sense of smell is the most immediate of our senses, often directly awakening memories and strong feelings. Unlike our other senses, it does not take a detour via the cerebral cortex but acts directly on the limbic system, where our emotions are processed. As part of our series Sensing Sculpture, we talk to Eduardo Palomares about the production of fragrances for his installations. Also in this newsletter: an interview with the sculptors Coral Lambert and Marsh Pels, whose works will be shown in Gütersloh, plus special calls for members as well as an invitation to our Dialogue in Spain.

The Fragrance of the Ocean
In his work Eduardo Palomares combines sculptures, videos and sketches with fragrances. We visited his installation Blooming Ocean and talked to him about how calmness smells and why his artworks can be found underwater.
On May 25, the Kunstverein Gütersloh opens the exhibition Seite an Seite (Side by Side) with works by sculptors Coral Lambert and Marsha Pels. In order to make outstanding aspects of the content and working methods of the two artists tangible, Berlin sculptor and curator Susanne Roewer has asked each of them two complex questions about the works on display.
On Saturday, May 11, we will meet in Mont-Roig! Let's immerse ourselves in the world of the artist and cultural activist Martí Rom, visit his studio as well as the Fundació Mas Miró.
