LPEP La Paternal Espacio Proyecto

Since 2009 LPEP realize in self-managed and collaborative ways, projects that link artistic practice with social reality. Artists, professionals and neighbors from the Barrio de La Paternal participate in them. To date, more than 400 artists have offered their works to more than 4,500 visitors. We made exhibitions, art residences, round tables, workshops, laboratories, open calls, and participate in different cultural centers such as the Recoleta Cultural Center, CMD, SESC Itaquera (SP-Brazil), Casa Tres Patios (MED-Colombia) among others. In addition to working with artists we currently develops projects with universities, municipalities, neighborhoods and cultural organizations.

PAPO and SirveVerse LAB are two LPEP action research programs.

PAPO (“Paternal Art and Politics”) is a program of activities and meetings that consists of: talks, discussion tables, improvement and follow-up workshops, open call for public actions and neighborhood meetings. It takes as its axis of work and reflection the link between art and politics understood as fields of active sociability.

SirveVerse LAB (SV) was born in 2009 as a research, realization and production program carried out by a group of multidisciplinary artists approaching ways to intervene different communication platforms and emerging technologies from experimental perspectives.
