The Fundació Joan Miró hosts the second edition of Campus Miró, a formative and experimental initiative that intertwines art, research, and contemporary museological practices.

Organised within the framework of the Fundació Joan Miró - UPF Chair of Contemporary Art, the campus will take place from 5 to 8 May 2025 and will offer four intensive days dedicated to critically exploring the functions of the museum as a space for the transmission of knowledge.

With a format that combines workshops, open classes, guided visits, and screenings, Campus Miró aims to be a meeting point for people from different disciplines, encouraging a vibrant dialogue between theory and practice. The classes form part of the Master’s in Contemporary Film and Audiovisual Studies at UPF and, for the duration of the Campus, will be open to the general public.

The activity is especially aimed at undergraduate, master’s and doctoral students in Communication and Humanities, as well as professionals in the fields of art, curating, cultural management, communication, visual arts and digital humanities.

Campus Miró 2025 is a unique opportunity to rethink the role of museums today: how they produce and transmit knowledge, how they rewrite narratives, and how they connect with today’s cultural challenges.

The event is organised by Dolors Rodríguez Roig (curator and researcher, Fundació Miró and UPF), Pablo Cavero (undergraduate student in Audiovisual Communication at UPF), and Ramon Balcells (industrial PhD candidate from the CINEMA group, Fundació Miró and UPF).
