Through an evolving programme of exhibitions, residencies, screenings, publications, conversations, workshops, and collaborative initiatives, Escat Projects seeks to contribute to the international contemporary art landscape by supporting practices that question conventions, embrace experimentation, and generate new forms of cultural exchange.
As an extension of Escat Gallery, Escat Projects reflects a long-term commitment to contemporary artistic practice. It is conceived as a place where ideas are researched, produced, challenged, and shared—a dynamic environment where artistic production and public experience become part of the same continuous process.
Escat Projects is the multidisciplinary platform of Escat Gallery, dedicated to artistic production, research, experimentation, and contemporary cultural exchange. Located in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, the space expands the gallery's programme by creating an environment where ideas can be developed beyond the traditional exhibition format, supporting artistic practices from their earliest stages of research through to their public presentation.
Rather than functioning solely as an exhibition venue, Escat Projects is conceived as an active working environment where artistic processes remain visible. It is a place where exhibitions coexist with production, research, moving image, site-specific interventions, publications, performances, and interdisciplinary collaborations, encouraging sustained dialogue between artists, curators, collectors, institutions, and the wider public.

The architecture of the space has been designed to respond to the evolving needs of contemporary artistic practice. Alongside flexible exhibition galleries, Escat Projects incorporates areas dedicated to artistic production, documentation, audiovisual creation, storage, research, and professional development, allowing projects to evolve organically while adapting to different scales, media, and disciplines.
Moving image occupies a central position within the programme. A permanent screening room hosts artists' films, video installations, screenings, talks, lectures, and educational initiatives, fostering conversations that connect contemporary art with cinema, sound, architecture, design, and emerging technologies.

Escat Projects understands contemporary art not simply as an object to be exhibited, but as an evolving process of investigation, production, reflection, and dialogue. By providing time, space, technical resources, and professional support, the project enables artists to explore ambitious ideas while encouraging meaningful engagement with diverse audiences.
