entreteixides
Visual arts educational programme that arises from the collaboration between the Can Felipa Civic Centre, Hangar and La Escocesa.
Entreteixides is an programme that aims to encourage the creation of contents at the Centre Cívic Can Felipa by means of specific workshops given by artists and cultural producers that operate in the context of Hangar and La Escocesa. The objective of Entreixides is to promote and test cooperative and participatory methodologies aimed at transversal and trans-generational audiences; a multiplicity of affected bodies* that will strengthen and expand the field of action of the three centres. To do so, it is essential to create alliances and share -not only resources, but also lines of thought and action- between collaborating institutions, an essential task in the methodological proposal of a programme based on interaction and coexistence.
The selection of the workshops that form part of the Entreixides programme is made by launching an internal call for proposals twice a year, during the months of February and July, aimed at artists and cultural producers from Hangar and La Escocesa. From the proposals received, two workshops are chosen to be included in the quarterly of Centre Cívic Can Felipa’s programme. Non selected applications are equally valued to be part of the future programme of workshops at the Centre Cívic.
3rd edition - program 2022
the intrusive image
january 2022
A person receives a material (videotape, e-mail, cassette, photograph, letter, book, etc.) that interrupts his life; this is the premise that The Intrusive Image has as its starting point and guiding thread. What is proposed is an exercise of thought and literary creation on the creation of fictions and narratives, halfway between a film club and a reading and writing club. There will be 8 sessions in which different audiovisual and literary creations in which this macguffin is used will be watched and/or read, and creative exercises of imagination and writing will be carried out with the same narrative resource. The intrusive image has the objective of creating a collective space of imagination, where, in addition to writing, the objective is to analyze the structures of fiction creation and its strategies.
We propose the creation of a publication that collects and organizes the materials resulting from The Intrusive Image, such as short stories, essays, short stories, poems, images, etc. Both the publication and the public presentation of the publication function as a way of closing and socializing the results of the process carried out in the meetings. Workshop by Marla Jacarilla and Juan David Galindo, artist in residence at Hangar.
2nd edition - programming 2021
copy/paste. non-creative writing workshop
March 2021
Are you still writing like in the 19th century? Are you still waiting for the muses to visit you every night to finish this novel you have in your hands? Let's face it, with all the information we receive on a daily basis, we can't write thinking that our imagination is pure and genuine. It's all written down. Why not copy, plagiarize, steal, mix or automate? In this workshop we will learn and play with writing techniques in which we will not have to write. We will mix texts from other authors to such create our own novels, copy comments from Youtube and travel agency ads, use algorithms to create verses and modify newspaper news to finally edit our own " collective "not so own" poetry book." Workshop by Natalia Domínguez and Ezequiel Soriano, artists in residence at La Escocesa.
irresolute fragments
april 2021
In these cities defined by production and consumption, wastelands appear as interruptions, the last spaces of freedom. These fragments of collective unconscious form a limbo, without rules or hierarchies, open to different possibilities of existence, places of (re)invention that perhaps can serve us at this moment, as spaces of welcome to what we carry inside and we have nowhere to put. This workshop will try to be a space for thought, exchange and reflection on how we have lived this last year, having as a starting point an incursion into the wastelands of Poblenou. Workshop by Catarina Botelho, artist in residence at La Escocesa.
streaming tuning
April-June 2021
We will learn how to use OBS (Open Broadcaster Software), a free and open source program, and the main application used for Internet streaming. The workshop will also propose the use of OBS for other recreational/creative purposes such as the creation/editing of live video or the customization of a virtual camera for video calls. Through this, we intend to work on a critical awareness of streaming content, reflecting on, among others, the Twitch phenomenon, the "streamers", the "slow TV", the "IRL", or the use of all these tools during the pandemic era. Workshop by Daniel Moreno Roldán, artist in residence at Hangar.
personal geographies of Poblenou
june 2021
The workshop invites to explore and capture intangible dimensions of urban space, absent from official and technological geographies, and to build a collaborative atlas of Poblenou. The first phase will take place in the surroundings of Can Felipa. After an introductory session on artistic cartography followed by an urban drift, participants will elaborate personal map concepts using different analog and/or digital techniques. The second phase will consist of the development and formalization of the proposed ideas, and will culminate at La Escocesa with an initiation to risography (embracing error and finding its possibilities), where each participant will make an edition of their own map. Workshop by Carola Moujan and Teresa Mulet, artist in residence at La Escocesa.
