Inland / Campo Adentro

Inland / Campo Adentro

Spain

It refers to a projected organization aimed at linking territory, culture ,and social change. The first phase (2010-2013) has taken Spain as a case study, where Campo Adentro launched an international conference producing projects from 22 artists in the same amount of villages throughout the country, including presentations and exhibitions, followed by evaluation and reflection periods which gave shape to Study Groups in Spain and Holland and promoting a series of publications. Nowadays INLAND is acting collectively as a para-institution initiating on-site collaboration, economies and practice-communities as a substrate of post-contemporary art cultural forms which are partly a social movement and partly a start-up. With different shapes in different countries, INLAND is publishing books, producing exhibitions or cheese, and performs consulting work for the European Commission on art uses for rural development processes, while simultaneously organizing a shepherd movement opposing dominant agrarian policy, and recovering an abandoned village for collective agrarian and artistic production. It was started by Fernando García Dory in 2009.
