About LOCAL

LOCAL Arte Contemporáneo. Santiago, directed by Javier González Pesce and Ignacio Murúa since 2011.

LOCAL began in 2011 as an exhibition space in a house in Barrio Italia. At the outset we set out to develop projects that would question the art system in Chile. Over time, our space transformed from the exhibition-space format into a space of sensory experiences. We work with artists and other agents privileging the production of working processes over the production of exhibitions. In 15 years many artists have occupied our space, among them Gonzalo Díaz, Elizabeth Burmann and Tris Vonna Michell.
