Bases The Taboo Look X Edition
1-16 December 2023
THE FESTIVAL
THE TABOO LOOK aims to motivate artists and creators to show their view of the "taboo" concept, which is broad and diverse, and encompasses from dreams, the unconscious, the mental worlds and the ghosts that populate them, the mystery, magic, even the untold reality, the unsaid, "clothes on the line", in the workplace, emotional, family, vital... from a vision as polyhedral as human thought: carefree, humorous, dramatic, dreamlike… always respecting all ways of thinking and creativity.
LA MIRADA TABÚ launches an invitation to bring to light the personal and non-transferable world of each creator, which, as we have been able to verify throughout the history of art and cinema, through great names in world cinematography, connects with the deepest, unknown and elusive imaginary of the spectators.
