This publication includes documentary material of the preparatory phases, Fieldworks and sessions of the workshop, as well as texts by Thomas Hirschhorn and Sandra Guimarães (artistic director of the art centre and curator of the project), together with an extensive list of testimonies of the participants describing their experiences within the activity, among other resources. This chronological document captures the complexity, energy and dynamic unfolding of Hirschhorn’s first “Presence and Production” work in Spain.

Through the Web Collection programme, Bombas Gens Centre d’Art considers its website as an extension of its physical space and artistic programme.
