Today e-flux publish an article about the project we develop within CONCOMITENTES. Ecological Agency the story of four projects related to environmental challenge and civil society.

“Concomitentes is a non-profit entity in Spain that promotes the creation of artworks and mediates between the civil society that commissions them and the artists who produce them. The entity invites groups from civil society to become the citizen-commissioners, or “comitentes”, of a work of art.

The concerns of these communities are increasingly related to socio-environmental challenges. Among them is the need to preserve the legacy of a community or to face the threat of the energy transition in rural areas. This year, the answer to four environmental challenges through the proposal of four contemporary female artists will be inaugurated: Carme Nogueira, Laia Estruch, María Auxiliadora Gálvez and Asunción Molinos Gordo thus become the four artists who, through their work, address the conflicts of four different communities located in Betanzos (A Coruña), Llanos (Cantabria), La Sobarriba (León) and the Couso Mountains (Pontevedra).”
