We share live and in a multifaceted way the progress of the global project.

How can contemporary artworks, invited by people to be part of their community, remain meaningful and increase their durability? How do art production sites change their material and conceptual patterns and habits to meet the challenges of sustainability? During the seminar 30 million years: art, ecology and sustainability, these questions will be addressed

The day of celebration, which will take place on Saturday, 12th October and will last all day, will consist of a tour of the communal forests, with several stops at places of importance, where a group of actions linked to the constituent elements of the forest will take place.

The Project Manager of Concomitentes, Alicia Ruiz Muñoz, will participate in the table ‘Circles of Dialogue’ on Tuesday 24th September.

The meeting, given by Mick Wilson, took place on Wednesday, 11 September, and explored the different archival impulses in contemporary art.

The meeting, -hosted by Mick Wilson, Director of Doctoral Studies and Professor of Art at HDK-Valand of University of Gothenburg-, will take place on Wednesday, 11 September, from 12 to 13.30hrs, and previous registration is required.

Through the development of our three ‘Living Labs’ in Belgium, France and Spain, we have been able to see how this citizen empowerment has been generated.

The artwork will not only serve as an allegation of the industrial past, but also become guardian of the new ecological location.

Despite the enthusiasm for this design of the first artist chosen, Bosco Sodi, this new artist has been chosen to create an artwork that will respond to the desire of the commissioners. He is currently working on a design and will travel soon to visit the site with the commissioners.

The meeting, given by Juan del Río, took place last Thursday, 21 March, tried to rethink what the contribution of art can be in this process of producing sustainable artistic works.

The meeting will take place on Thursday, 21 March, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, and registration is required.

The ‘Art Living Lab’ incorporates a gender perspective through and has a compromise to promote co-responsibility or other innovative measures and tools to promote equal opportunities between people.

The artist is talking with the Couso community, picking them out and asking them questions that they all answer, calmly, expanding and letting memories, bodies, experiences, desires, territory, illusions, but also dismay and fear of a process that, for now, they visualise as inconcrete and diffuse.

After the mediation process, which took place during 2023, an invitation was extended to artists, DISNOVATION org, to take part in this reflection and better anticipate the consequences on natural environments on resources.

From the collective desire that was defined through a mediation process in 2023, an artwork commission has been elaborated to inspire the work of artist Asunción Molinos Gordo.

The European project will impact and benefit six main target groups/audiences.

The three artistic works of art must be ecological responses that should be respectful of the environment and that deepen the maintenance of ecosystems.

In late May we organised the first European session of Art as a Space of Encounter and a Common Walk in Galicia.

The main mission of this project is to demonstrate the capacity of culture and art to address sustainability and not only as a generator of new works of art but also as an activator of processes of participatory methodologies.

The two days (25th and 26th of May) seek to delve into the role of art as a generator of meeting spaces and analyze the role of society in the self-management of the territory.

The three partners Concomitentes (Spain), De Nieuwe opdrachtgevers/Les Nouveaux Commanditaires (Belgium) and La Societé de les Nouveaux Commanditaires (France) operate under this methodology.

This project seek, from practice, to see how culture can operate and become a relevant agent in sustainability.
