LACONTRA Centre de Creació pre-opens its doors for the Tallers Oberts del Poble Sec workshops weekend (November, 8th-9th-10th) with the collective exhibition 'De Par en Par' (Ajar). Raw and naked works from the resident artists Callum Robertson, Nathalie Rey, Santi Cabezuelo, David Galindo, Igor Binsbergen, Carlos Espinar and Diego Álvarez “Basajaun”.
In the small hours, over a chunk of Galician ham (lacon) and a piece of art, the idea of LACONTRA was born as the new centre of artistic and creative activity right in the heart of Barcelona (Puríssima Concepció 9, Poble Sec). More than 600 square metres opened up for the gestation, production and exhibition of art works, circus, theatre, poetry and live music.
If artistic and creative activity is raw passion, this is exactly what you will find in these premises spread over three floors. Among indoor gardens, sofas, workshops for artists and restructured factory walls, the visitor will be able to savour it all and let himself be caressed by the works of those who jumped onto this Homeric ship, looking for a place to create and in search of a new language far from commercial taste.
