There is no art without community, which is why we co-create public programmes for joint action and reflection.

In addition to the concomitancias and the production of artworks, we also aim to explore the responses that emerge in the process of the practice itself. Concomitentes is an open invitation for citizens to continue to think together about how to create a more inclusive society while also taking care of the planet. We organise activities, research, and gatherings that generate knowledge and encourage debate on the issues that affect us, such as grassroots participation, sustainability, mediation, and contemporary art.

Mutations in Public Space

When the pandemic inevitably restricted public space, it was a blow that highlighted political processes which were already emerging in recent decades: the growing standardisation of space, social inequality, mutual distrust, the dismantling of public and community initiatives, and the desire for immediacy have made themselves felt more forcefully in recent years.

In Between

La iniciativa 'In Between. Por una mediación en Europa que fortalezca comunidades’ pretende intensificar un tipo de mediación cultural que fortalece la democracia y la participación ciudadana. Dentro de sus principales objetivos está dar visibilidad a las prácticas de mediación artística y cultural; generar intercambio de conocimientos y producción de contenido; y proporcionar espacios de apoyo mutuo entre personas e instituciones.

Debate on Mediation

Mediation involves listening, desire, and frustration. It also involves negotiation, trust, and above all, connection. This experimental research project is a springboard from which to explore the tensions and complexities inherent to mediation, which is an essential act in culture: a mechanism through which to generate spaces of enunciation.

Convocatoria de Arte Juventud por la Sostenibilidad 2024

Open Call: Art for Sustainability

Until 10 June 2022, we invited proposals to generate a new Concomitancia. We provide 30,000 euros to support the selected proposal, which should address an environmental and/or social challenge through grassroots participation. In this section you can find out about the background and details of this open call.
