It offers opportunities to explore and try new ways of interaction through a dynamic and collective work creating situations from different points of view and disciplines.

la vitrina

La Vitrina (shop window) is a project for exhibitions. It takes place in the former garage of the house. It is a white cube-like (3.5m X 3.5X 2.3m); the frontal glass is exposed to the 15th Street, a very traffic flow one, which connects the downtown with the north of the city.

La Vitrina springs out with an intention to permanently approach more people to the artistic practice through an uninterrupted program of exhibition. La Vitrina wants to create for the memory of the pedestrians, a great collection of contemporary works; as an imaginary museum which enrich and extend its daily relationships and will move toward the contemporary artistic production.

Since its opening, la Vitrina has exhibited many local artists as well as national and international ones. Artists can participate through a yearly national call. Lots of international artists have been invited to exhibit on it. The program also includes some re-makes of relevant international artistic works: the Calcos. This project proposes to create a representative set of ephemeral contemporary works spread out in museums and collections which have never been exhibited in the city.

This program is carried out thanks to the support of Mario Scarpetta.

sala de estar sala de estar is one of the three main projects of lugar a dudas. It is a place to spend time alone or in company, that has been set up to provoke encounters, researches, projects, discussions and day-dreaming with art, people and publications.

It materializes inside the house, taking the most of several spaces. After the architecture of this republican house, one can say that sala de estar takes place in the lobby, living-room, rooms and central patio; spaces that where used in the first year (2005-2006) for exhibitions and film screenings. Setting down a reading room, video room, consultation room along the central patio; is displayed in a very flexible and accessible way, the documentation center and archive of the space.  Talks, workshops, seminars, gatherings, one-day-exhibitions, open-studios and a set of different forms and strategies of exhibiting art, publication projects and documentation, alter and change the regular configuration of these rooms.
