OPTICA invites the public to reactivate feminist memories in public spaces

At OPTICA, we believe that contemporary art must be experienced, touched, and discussed. Our cultural mediation program creates spaces for engagement between you, the artworks, and the artists, whether you’re a student, a senior, a curious visitor, or an art enthusiast.
