In 2023, under the commission of the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in the US and coinciding with the Spanish presidency of the European Union, the Center of Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (CCCB) presents a revised version of “Polis” which, on this special occasion, focuses on the best works of intervention in public space in Spain during the last twenty years. The exhibition is conceived as a journey through 25 projects showing the improvement of public spaces in Spanish cities, reflecting on globally shared challenges, and presenting solutions that contribute to more democratic cities.
Presented by CCCB and commissioned by the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington, DC, in collaboration with Dupont Underground, Architecture and the Question of Democracy - Series.
