Biblioteca Difusa

 

The Biblioteca Difusa (Fuzzy Library) is a living archive where different artistic practices around the book object, from various publishers and self-produced artist's books, photobooks, fanzines, art books, etc.), intermingle and coexist without distinction or hierarchies of value.

The catalogue also includes essays and magazines on art, design, participatory practices, experimental publishing, non-creative writing, and printed web.

The Biblioteca Difusa (Fuzzy Library) was created to share books from different collections (Radial Radiant, Ezequiel Soriano, Alba Feito and Zosen Bandido, Pablo Santa Olalla and books donated by La Escocesa) with the community of residents and members. Our aim is finally to take the books off their shelves and activate dynamics that create dialogue in the community.

Monthly Concretions around the books

The Biblioteca Difusa (Fuzzy Librar) will be “activated” every month with the Concreciones : events in the form of thematic selections / installations, and informal events such as the bookjokey, talks etc.
We want the Concreciones to be an open space, so we welcome any thematic proposal (that can be connected with personal, research or archive projects) or event formats.
