Playground !

From 4 July to 1 August 2025 with an optional extension until 1 September 2025

Games and sports as common languages, foundations for respectful coexistence. As the 2026 World Cup brings the world together,this exhibition questions what games and sports reveal about our societies: power relations, competition, inclusion, and our capacity to live together. Sport and games offer common ground: not as solutions to social tensions, but as arenas in which methods can be tested, urban and rural divides bridged, and understanding fostered across differences. Far from being anecdotal, playful practices constitute systems governed by shared rules, where strategy, chance, cooperation, and fairness shape interactions. Present since the origins of human societies, play—like the arts—is a universal language of creative expression that crosses cultures and territories, transcends linguistic and cultural boundaries, and connects the urban and the rural, the individual and the collective, the intimate and the spectacular. We are seeking strong artistic proposals capable of questioning contemporary social, political, and media-related issues through the lens of games and sport, by subverting or reinventing the rules, reshaping hierarchies, and opening up new fields of encounter.
