Description

María Auxiliadora Gálvez Pérez is a prize winning Spanish architect and founder of the company G+W Architecture and the collective TOUCHandGOreality. She has a PhD in architecture in the subject: Dance as an experimental field of architecture. Sunset Expander is a cultural, social and participative live art project focused on the intensification of everyday life, particularly on the sunset and sunrise. It is an instrument of transformation of the urban space and promotes its alternative use. The project will be carried out in Norway in cooperation with Bergen School of Architecture. The result of the project will be four days with different activities. Every day an activity related to architecture, choreography, music and/or filmmaking will be proposed to the citizens of Bergen. They will be organised as workshops to encourage participation. A web page will be launched. It will be the tool to announce the events and will also be an interactive archive of completed actions. The aim of the projects is to provide the audience with a new perception of urban spaces. Support is provided to help address fragmentation and to stimulate artist mobility and capacity development.
