LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial
Renews Affiliate Membership
LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial was created in 2007 as
an interdisciplinary space intended to foster artistic exchange and
promote relations between society, art, science, technology and
creative industries. It is, further, a center for research, training
and artistic and technical production, as well as for the public
exhibition of new forms of art and industrial creation. LABoral arose
as a response to the need in Spain for a space dedicated to artistic
experimentation. The group is also involved in the development of
emerging activity by creators who make use of new tools offered by
current Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Leonardo/
ISAST welcomes LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial as a
returning Affiliate Member. FIND OUT MORE
