The inaugural event brought together artists, teachers, mediation teams, institutions, students, and families. The performance action “Res i tot. El so del silenci” by Fito Conesa and 3rd-year ESO students from Institut Narcís Monturiol was presented, a piece resulting from work done in the previous edition's residency.
EN RESiDÈNCiA is a program for developing artistic creation processes in public high schools, where artists and ESO students collaborate throughout an entire academic year.
Since the fifteenth edition (2023-2024), the program has expanded to Badalona, Montcada i Reixac, Sant Adrià de Besòs, and Santa Coloma de Gramenet, thanks to the collaboration between the Barcelona City Council and the Consorci del Besòs, along with the participating city councils.
This year, the program grows in Besòs with nine secondary education centers and the collaboration of cultural entities such as A Bao A Qu, Experimentem amb l’ART, L’Afluent, La Poderosa, and Sala Beckett. Badalona features Efrén Álvarez, Maria Roy Deulofeu, Cristina Cordero, and Helena Ripoll; in Montcada i Reixac, Arquea Col·lectiu and Joana Capella; in Sant Adrià de Besòs, Sílvia Navarro i Perramon; and in Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Victoria Sickness, Candela Casas, Élise Moreau, and Noela Covelo Velasco.
The blogs for each project and the general EN RESiDÈNCiA blog allow followers to track the creation processes. One can also subscribe to the digital newsletter to stay updated on news.
