From La Escocesa we would like to thank all of you who have been part of the community and the program during 2023. We organized more than 40 public activities, continued some internal transformation processes and initiated partnerships with local and international entities.

During this year we will welcome 12 new resident artists; we will expand the center with the opening of the Foseco building (just behind our actual place, in the same enclosure); we will inaugurate the exhibition "Out-of-place gestures" in the Castell de Montjuïc; we will continue with the INTRACCIONS project together with the CAP Poblenou and the Maria Espinalt High School and we will start an international project with five European centers to promote good practices in accessibility, inclusion and community work, among many other things that we will tell you here, on our website and social media!

We hope to see you soon and we want to send you our best wishes for the beginning of this new year!

And above all, we can not start the year without continuing to call for a ceasefire to Palestine. We continue to raise our voices and organize in solidarity and support.

delocalized program

gestos fuera de lugar

➞ from January, 22nd to March, 24th

out-of-place gestures
castell de montjuïc (Bacelona)

Out-of-Place Gestures is a translational movement between spaces, an attempt to bring certain processes and dynamics that operate and shape La Escocesa to the Montjuic Castle. It is a partial assembly of gestures and actions that also speaks to the discomfort of this displacement.

The artists participating in this exhibition share a common space, a daily life crossed by multiple affections, affinities, and desires. But they also share the will to build an associative project that is more than the sum of its parts, one that has a horizontal structure and contains support networks. In this context, practices, rather than discourses, are the creators of the world. +info
