The various approaches with regard to the genesis of places in the territory of L’Hospitalet have propelled us to try to see the contrasts or synergies that might result from staging together their respective methodologies and conclusions. Those approaches can be summed up into three main categories: the technical, the historical and the artistic. From those points of departure, we hope to weave a more complex and extended picture of an urban and social landscape that is stressed in many ways and remains a puzzling challenge to all those that try to activate and act upon it.

LOOP Barcelona
We are a platform dedicated to creation and research into the contemporary metropolis. Since 2002 we have been developing artistic projects and researching autonomous forms of cultural production and community learning.
As part of our long experience, we would highlight the following projects: the touring exhibition ¡Cataluña termina aquí! ¡Aquí empieza Murcia! (2011-14), on urban spaces and popular learning; MAD#sub anotaciones desde el sub-suburbio de Madrid (2010-11), a visual essay about the metropolitan periphery south of Madrid; Valparaíso Aula Permanente (2010), creation of a learning community around the city of Valparaíso (Chile); the exhibition La comunitat inconfessable (2009), for the Catalan pavilion of the 59th Biennale de Venezia Contemporary Art exhibition; and the project SIT Manresa, Servei d’Interpretació Territorial (2005-08), a public audit on the transformation of the city of Manresa. We are currently developing Aprendizaje autónomo, involving research into the forms of creation and re-appropriation of life that refer to libertarian culture and pedagogy. This research has earned a research residency at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía.
