In each encounter, artists and art specialists gather together around an artwork.<\/p>\n<p>The encounters in\u00a0<em>Artworks for\u2026\u00a0<\/em>coalesce around the idea of how to imagine the museum through the objects it holds \u2013 the particular museum hosting\u00a0<em>After 1968<\/em>, with its specific nature and history; and the museum in general, as an institution that creates a narrative of the present by storing objects from the past for the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue: Auditorium, Bilbao Fine Arts Museum.<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Time: 7 pm.<br \/>\nEntry free of charge, limited seating.

There is no appointed audience although sometimes the action may be witnessed by occasional passers by. I usually try to do it while there is little movement in the streets because of the furtive or illegal aspect of the action. In that sense I find it interesting to delineate what is legally allowed and what is not, as a definition of the individual in society. I have always documented the action either on video or photographically. The premise for the work is to execute the action as described in the title (location included) or, one could say, contained in the title. Thus I don\u2019t think the interest lies solely in the visual result, but in the relationship in between the different expressions. For example, in <em>Peeing with my daughter on Pulaski Bridge<\/em> the image and statement of the action complement each other. Another important aspect of the actions is to pee standing as a performance of masculinity. So far, I have chosen a number of different locations, the reasons for whose interest varies, always with the aim of expanding the spectrum of meanings.\u201d [Itziar Okariz on <em>Mear en espacios p\u00fablicos y privados<\/em>, 2000-2004]\n<p><em>To Pee in Public and Private Spaces <\/em>is being exhibited in the exhibition <em>After 1968.
