In its newly edited version, the video 'Twin Tasted & Tongues' by Miralda premieres on February 17, 2018 in the context of Doc Fortnight, MoMA's annual international festival of nonfiction film.

Doc Fortnight 2018 / February 15, 2018 – February 26, 2018

@ MoMA (The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters) 

Twin, Tastes & Tongues was commissioned to artist Antoni Miralda and produced by Screen Projects on the occasion of the platform’s participation to the 9th Shanghai Biennale (2012). The split-screen footage of daily goings-on in Barcelona and Shanghai mappes out the encounter of the cities’ differences and similarities and captures the blurred cultural lines of our global present.
In its newly edited version, the work has now been selected to premiere on February 17, 2018 at Doc Fortnight, MoMA’s annual international festival of nonfiction film, within the ‘Shorts Program: The Presence of Place’, along with other recently produced videos by renowned international artists.

Antoni Miralda

Miralda lives in Paris since the 60s. His anti-militarist first compositions, known as Soldats Soldés (1967-72), have been known as ‘assemblages’ evolving from the accumulation of plastic white toy soldiers. Living in NY in the 70s and 90s, his works centered on public space and the edible, with project such as; Wheat & Steak (Kansas City, 1981), Santa Comida, (Nova York, Miami, París, 1984-89), and the development together with Montse Guillén of the restaurant El Internacional in Tribeca (Nova York, 1984-1986). In the mid-90s, evolving from the concept of food as culture, he creted FoodCulturaMuseum, a project which has travelled, evolved and taken different shapes and forms, such as; Food Pavilion for the 2000 Hannover Expo; Power Food and Sabores y Lenguas (Caracas, Lima, Mèxic, Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo, Xangai). In 2010, he had his extensive retrospective, De gustibus non disputandum, at the Reina Sofía Museum, and in late 2016 he will present at MACBA his recent American works. He currently lives between Barcelona and Miami.
