From June 15 to October 22, 2023, the exhibition “From the Gothic to the Metavers” will be held at the Barcelona Maritime Museum, which proposes a journey through history to learn about the origins of the Consolat de Mar, its contribution to law and the history and future perspective in the field of dispute resolution.
This exhibition combines different channels and supports to communicate the history of Consolat de Mar from its beginnings to its future projection. Real objects and the most relevant books that record the history of this institution are presented, audiovisual elements in which highly prestigious professionals explain the historical and legal elements of the Consolat de Mar, especially its contribution to mediation, and immersive elements where glasses are placed at the service of the visitor and transported through virtual reality to a 14th century cake, which sailed in the middle of the sea.
The exhibition is supported by the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, the Generalitat of Catalonia, the Barcelona City Council, the Barcelona Provincial Council, Barcelona Turisme, and the Barcelona Grain Market.
