COAC and CentreObert are collaborating, through the Garrotxa-Ripollès Delegation, in organizing the RCR BUNKA. OPEN PROGRAM project, which accompanies the RCR Summer Workshop, the international workshop that RCR Arquitectes and RCR BUNKA Private Foundation organize every summer.
The Universe of Shared Creativity
This year the program will revolve around the theme “SHARING” and will consist of a series of four lectures by Bleda and Rosa, who will reveal to us the existing link between image, place, and memory that they have explored together, and by Carles Oliver Barceló, LaCol cooperative architecture, and Lacaton Vassal, who will talk to us about collaborative architecture.
As in previous editions, the lectures will be accompanied by a selection of video creations that, under the title “FOREST MATTER,” celebrate the poetic power of trees.
The series will kick off next Tuesday, July 2 at 7 pm, with a conversation with María Bleda and José María Rosa entitled “Common Places.”
"We have always understood the territory as a common good, a repository of individual and collective memory. Through our photographs, we try to bring to light the different layers accumulated over time and thus highlight the complex intersection of cultures and times that shape the places we inhabit."
María Bleda (Castellón, 1969) and José María Rosa (Albacete, 1970) have been working together for three decades, exploring, through rigorous and profound research, the link between image, place, and memory. Football Fields, Battlefields, Origin, and Promptuarium are some of the most relevant photographic series in their career. With these works, they have developed their own language, between the visual and the textual, which allows them to revisit one of their most important areas of interest: the representation of the territory. In 2008, they were awarded the National Photography Prize.
