Huarte Art Centre

On the periphery of the periphery

Island is a town in the northwest of Pamplona, with a population of 7,000. The Island Center, located in one of the town’s entrances, seeks ways to establish links and exchanges with the local community, through activities specifically designed for both the people and through activities that are specifically designed to create projects together.

The artistic community knows what its needs, priorities, and shortcomings are. Therefore, the Island Center has decided to comply with the catalyst function of the proposals, and not so many issuing or producer areas, with the aim of helping to revitalize and feed the cultural fabric. It then works closely, listening and in a relationship with the surrounding artistic structure.

The most peripheral allows all freedoms and thoughts that are often unable to arise in neuralgic centers; thus, the Island Center uses its physical place to open new avenues for divergent ways of thinking and doing. It allows you to put aside the better perspective of things, and open up to contemporary practices and theories over the time needed.
