Exhibition "20 views on URV Publications. 20 years of books" at the Terres de l'Ebre campus CRAI
From to
This exhibition commemorates the twentieth anniversary of the URV publishing house through a visual and conceptual journey through the covers of its most emblematic books.
It is part of the 30/20 anniversary of the Language and Publications Service and focuses on the covers of around twenty books that symbolize two decades of commitment to knowledge, art and scientific and cultural dissemination.
It has been more than twenty years since the publishing house Publicacions URV began its activity. Since then, we have made more than 500 monographs available to everyone, both in paper and digital format. Today we offer you a small sample of all this activity.
This exhibition consists of twenty book covers. Most of them are works of art in different styles and techniques that act as a portico for our books; works, in fact, not initially intended by their creators for this purpose. That is why for one day we are giving prominence to the cover in addition to giving it to the content of the publications.
We wanted to complement these images with a sample of our magazines and information about open access dissemination.
You also have at your disposal a set in paper format of the titles where the covers appear, so that you can touch, open and read our books, and thanks to the CRAI of the URV you can take them home.
And, in addition, you can also watch a series of interviews with authors of our publications and listen to the latest episodes of our podcast Compaginades.

Exhibition "Silenced Voices" at Sescelades campus CRAI

The Sescelades campus CRAI hosts the "Silenced Voices" exhibition, a project with which the Journalists' Association of Catalonia wants to pay tribute to the journalists murdered in Gaza, Lebanon and Israel.
This exhibition is a project that began in December 2023 at the Barcelona headquarters of the Journalists' Association of Catalonia. In the fall of 2024, given the persistence of the conflict and the increase in victims, the Journalism for Peace Working Group decided to expand this tribute and bring it to journalism universities in Catalonia to raise awareness about the risks of the profession in war zones and the fundamental role of journalism as a guarantor of the right to information.
It also wants to honor, vindicate and remember the 173 information professionals who have been murdered in the area since the conflict between Palestine and Israel escalated violently in October 2023.
The exhibition will be exhibited at all CRAI headquarters of the URV and, as a conclusion, will be installed from January 12 to 25, 2026 at the CRAI campus Catalunya, the center where degrees in Journalism and Audiovisual Communication are taught.
