As a center for dance and living arts, we promote an education that places the body and action at the center of the experience: practicing other ways of transmitting knowledge through the body. But above all, we aim to weave long-lasting, flexible collaborations based on mutual trust to create an educational community in a broad sense: with teachers, students, families, and the neighborhood. An education on living practices, open to risk, unpredictable, that bets on research, ever-changing, and under construction.
With the mediation of Magdalena Garzón: “I have a degree in Environmental Sciences and Choreography. My practice and personal interest focus on Body Weather training and somatic body practices. I am interested in body work and expression in various contexts and social groups, proposing an approach from socio-educational projects. In 2017, I received a scholarship from the OAEA of the Institut del Teatre to develop a dance pedagogy for people with visual diversity linked to creation and audio description in dance. Since 2020, I have regularly collaborated with the accessibility work team for exhibitions at the CCCB.”
The Graner educational program is part of the Caixa d’Eines(Toolbox) program, supported by the Barcelona Neighborhood Plan, which consists of introducing artistic practices into the school curriculum with the aim of reducing inequalities between the city’s neighborhoods.
Schools: El Polvorí, Enric Granados, SEAT, Pau Vila, Institut Montjuïc and Institut Domènech i Montaner.
