The staff of the CCCB has decided to organise a public reading of The Thousand and One Nights as a symbolic act of rejection of the war in Iraq. The idea is to read the book every day (working days and holidays) during exhibition opening times for as long as the conflict lasts. Each intervention will last approximately 15 minutes. They invite all visitors to the CCCB to take part in this initiative.
