Abdelkader Benchamma
L’HORIZON DES ÉVÈNEMENTS – ESPAI D’ART CONTEMPORANI DE CASTELLÓ

Solo Show

Espai d’Art Contemporani de Castelló, Spain
From June 19 to September 27, 2026

Abdelkader Benchamma is presenting a solo show at the Espai d’Art Contemporani de Castelló, Spain, for which a site-specific mural has been created, complemented by the Komentenbuch series on paper. The exhibition’s title refers to astrophysics: the “event horizon” is an imaginary border at the edge of the mysterious black holes that marks the limit of our knowledge, and from which no light can ever return nor escape. Abdelkader Benchamma’s work thus facilitates a passage between worlds and an encounter between the visible and the invisible.
