Dr Nicola Ashmore travelled to Barcelona to present the Guernica Remakings project at Espronceda January 25th 2023 as part of their Cultural Diplomacy, art, peace and solidarity project in partnership with the German Consulate in Barcelona. Nicola’s talks and the Guernica Remakings exhibition happened alongside the exhibition "Dialogue" curated by Victoria Tissot and Savina Tarsitano and by the project’s 8 artists in residence. Savina led a new Kids' Guernica workshop with families and children from Ukraine and Spain now living in Barcelona. This resulted in a new collaborative canvas created by the Ukrainian and Spanish families, an example of interculture dialogue. The Keiskamma Art Project's Kids’ Guernica canvas was displayed for the first time in Spain alongside the Keiskamma Guernica (2017) textiles piece!
