In these times of constant redefinition of the paradigms of self-representation, of the shifting and fragile boundaries between reality and fiction, the MAC VAL inaugurates in February 2023 a new group exhibition, "True Stories". If storytelling is not a new issue, it is nevertheless the heart of the world's current affairs, here approached through a particular look at the different realities that exist in this floating space between art and life. The real does not exist outside of its narratives. The forty or so artists included in the exhibition stage fictions and as many (true?) stories.
