La Escocesa
La Escocesa is an artist-led contemporary visual arts organization and residency space managed collectively through the artists’ association Associació d’Idees EMA. La Escocesa focuses on supporting artists and cultural agents, offering workspaces and resources for the development of their projects. It provides studios and workshops for over 30 resident artists, alongside a free public program of events, open calls, and training opportunities. As a space inhabited by the artistic community, La Escocesa is active not only in the production and creation of works but also in the common generation of knowledge, networks of care, and new ways of building and practicing cultural institutions. The associative nature of the center enables the active participation of the artists, generating a horizontal collective structure through which the center is managed. As a feminist institution, the values of La Escocesa arise from an intersectional, emancipatory, cooperative, and inclusive position, which advocates for sustainability, experimentation, collaboration, and the development of community artistic projects.
