Museari Queer Art 8 inaugurates today in Xàtiva the exhibition «Vulnerables», a proposal by 30 artists that advocates for human rights, sexual diversity, and inclusion. The opening will be at 19:00 at the Museu de Belles Arts – Casa de l’Ensenyança, where it will remain until January.
An inauguration that turns vulnerability into discourse
The new edition of Museari Queer Art arrives with a precise title: «Vulnerables». The City Council of Xàtiva places the exhibition within the defense of human rights, sexual diversity, and inclusion, and confirms that the project will bring together works by thirty artists from different countries.
The inauguration includes a performative action by Urko Álex García Ferrando. His intervention links the institutional opening with live artistic language and reinforces the combination of disciplines that characterizes a project born on the internet and later transferred to the physical museum.
The exhibition is organized by Museari and the City Council of Xàtiva. It has the support of the departments of Culture, Women and Equality, and Inclusive and Non-Sexist LGTBIQ+ Policies. This institutional structure places the project at the intersection of culture, equality, and diversity policies.
Today’s event marks the beginning of a long journey: from September 9, 2026 to January 10, 2027. The duration allows the exhibition to also engage in activities scheduled for November around the fight against macho violence.
Thirty artists connected by an online museum
Museari Queer Art 8 brings together artists who have participated over the last two years in Museari, Museu de l’Imaginari, defined by its organizers as an online museum dedicated to researching and disseminating art in favor of diversity through history and education.
The chronological list published by Museari shows ongoing activity between 2015 and 2026. For the recent selection, among others, appear names like Antonio García López, Carme Jorques, Miguel Soro, Inmaculada Abarca-Martínez, Ricard Vila, Maria Gosalbes, Josuè Perales, Alfred Moral, Mar Juan Tortosa, Helena Moral, Josep Albert, Susana Chiocca, Dori Nigro, and Paulo Pinto.
Also listed are Ana Pérez Quiroga, Tales Frey and Hilda De Paulo, Colin Ginks, Jorge Gil, Càrol Otero, Carmen Caldes, Óscar Bermejo, Ricard Huerta, Urko Álex García Ferrando, Mireia Pérez Rodríguez, Laura Avinent, Francesc Roig, Ricard Balanzà, and Xelo Serrano. The group makes visible the international and plural dimension announced by the organization.
The selection is not presented as a single aesthetic response. Its common denominator is the link with a virtual museum that uses art, research, and education to work on diversity. The physical exhibition translates that recent archive into a shared experience in the room.
From the virtual museum to the Casa de l’Ensenyança
One of the distinguishing features described by the City Council is the combination of resources typical of virtual museums with traditional exhibition formats. Some pieces are original physical; others incorporate digital tools that the public accesses with their mobile devices.
This design extends the narrative beyond the object hung or installed. The visitor can navigate content through technological languages without the physical space losing its function. Museari thus relates two modes of access: the digital continuity of its online museum and the physical concentration of a temporary exhibition.
The venue is the Museu de Belles Arts – Casa de l’Ensenyança de Xàtiva. The project returns to this space after previous editions, and the Museari record identifies this as the eighth edition of Queer Art and the third held in Xàtiva.
The theme of vulnerability is explicitly connected with the fight against macho violence. According to the council, this issue will gain prominence in November through a set of awareness-raising activities. The additional programming extends the duration of the exhibition and prevents its focus from being limited to the opening day.
How to visit Museari Queer Art 8
The opening will take place today, Wednesday September 9, at 19:00 hours. The exhibition will remain open until January 10, 2027, a date confirmed by both the City Council and the Museari calendar.
Before attending, it is advisable to check the current hours of the Museu de Belles Arts – Casa de l’Ensenyança. The consulted sources confirm the date, venue, and duration of the exhibition, but do not detail in the news the regular hours of all days.
The proposal offers several entry points: to meet thirty artists from different countries, to observe how physical and digital resources dialogue, and to approach a project that supports diversity through research and education. The performative action by Urko Álex García Ferrando will be exclusive to the inaugural event.
Museari Queer Art 8 begins today with a clear editorial idea. By naming «Vulnerables» the exhibition, the project does not hide the exposure to harm; it turns it into artistic matter, shared memory, and a tool to talk about rights.
