ATTENTION! Registration is now open for the Weird Space workshops + exhibition. This series explores the city through the performativity of the urban dinner-action. We are presenting three diverse and exciting workshops: Lesboanimitas, with nucbeade; Confluencia intergaláctica de subjetividades colectivas ociosas (C.I.S.C.O.), with Pablo Durango; and Sobremesa, with Cecilia Cameo + David Macho.
As part of the 'ETSAM Lectures' series, Benedetta Tagliabue, an Italian architect based in Barcelona and founder of Miralles Tagliabue EMBT, will visit ETSAM on Monday, March 5, at 12:30 PM in the auditorium.

The exhibition Wellbeing in the City, at the Casa de la Arquitectura and curated by Izaskun Chinchilla, is conceived as a critical device that reconsiders the foundations upon which urban wellbeing has historically been constructed. Rather than defining wellbeing as a set of indicators (life expectancy, obesity or diabetes rates) or the provision of services, the exhibition approaches it as a relational condition, dependent on the quality of interactions between bodies, communities, and environments. At the core of its conceptual framework lies the Quechua term Sumak Kawsay — Buen Vivir or Good Living — which integrates material, biological, social, and ecological dimensions within a single plane.
