Art out of place

Them museums They are spaces for the safekeeping, care and refuge of works of art. Open-door fortresses for the protection of historical legacy. However, despite the efforts of recent years to democratize access to culture and art, museums can be spaces where some people still feel out of place. But what happens when it's the paintings that we misplace?

Out of Place Art is a project that consists of installing replicas of paintings from the Museum of Meadow, the Museum of Granollers and the Museum Picasso. The fact of finding the works in everyday settings generates, at the same time, impact and direct access to the works.

Besides’embellish the city environment, each work of art will be accompanied by some element that will encourage reflection and critical thinking. The creations will invite think, for example, on gentrification, the role of the school, the community, natural spaces, neighborhood struggles, the management of immediacy and networks, etc.

Out of Place Art causes the encounter between unusual paintings and environments: bridges, walls, streets, squares... It is a opportunity to shorten the distance between works of art of great value with a wide, diverse and plural range of the population that may not frequent museums.
