What is PAELLA POP?
PAELLA POP is an aesthetic art project dedicated to organizing a series of cultural events in major cities where international contemporary art is brewing. It proposes new cross-disciplinary relationships between the arts and the public, through a transgressive prism and in connection with the latest debates of today.
The central purpose of PAELLA POP, and its special appeal, is to inspire a relationship between the art world, the public, and a giant hybrid paella, one that fulfills its traditional role of bringing people together but whose ingredients vary depending on the city and culture where it is cooked. At each event, the attendees will enjoy this original paella accompanied by performances, dance, music, installations, and other disciplines, thanks to the collaboration with emerging artists in each city .
Why PAELLA POP?
The world, now small and fast, shapes, blends and merges us.
Nomads of the eternal seeking, hybrids in the growing universe,
everything is transforming and relating, while everyth ing is moving.
Now that everyone is different, nobody is.
PAELLA POP was born in the belief that art should be fun, interactive and questioning, that art can be an experiential event and a catalyst for big change, with a conceptual and philosophical basis related to innovations in knowledge. From the work of Nicolas Bourriaud comes relational art, with which it’s intended to open up the meeting and its synergies.
Here are common motivations and characteristics of PAELLA POP:
questioner
we propose questions of general interest with the intention of questioning established stereotypes, as the distinctions of gender, race and sexuality. Therefore we help to build a future overcomed, based on the Queer ambiguity as a unit and as a transgression of the setted up.
hybrid
The most interesting fields of study are the endless mergers between nodes. Places of no-limits, of open and changing concepts for a tomorrow mestizo and rich in nuances. Where merge relations between high-, media- and popular culture, offering new languages created by combining in art of different cultures, bringing the origin place traditions to the global world of today.
transdisciplinar
We combine different artistic languages and gastronomy because we are interested on relational art, where prioritize experience and artistic enjoyment beyond the art-object. Creating a favourable environment for reflection and generation of synergies among attendees.
proactive
We use the motivation and irony to reconsider today topics, offering the possibility of causing multiple open and constructive solutions. The intention is to activate the viewer becoming a partner capable of modeling concepts with their own choice of stimuli.
nutritious
We collaborate to energize the neighborhoods in which we intervene, offering to neighbors, artists, art- and gastronomy lovers an approach to the emerging proposals. With these new proposals, codes and languages, culture is generated and it expands the collective imagination, first steps for a social transformation
generator
Suppose that the flutter of a butterfly can cause a hurricane. We intend that the actions that happen will have an impact both in the mind of the visitor and the own agents of action, producing a mutual intoxication.
nomad
We understand the Pop-Up events as new spaces of freedom for creativity and generation of new ideas, where minorities have voice and the social change has a place. Today the society is in need of constant motion, so we propose a migratory project that interrelates art centers.
collaborative
roposals are developing in horizontal dialogue with artists from different backgrounds, approaches and disciplines. Among artists and attendees is cooking the generating power of PAELLA POP.
visual
we use a refined esthetic that refers to a near future and illustrate the above features with references to the Queer and Series B.

Qué es PAELLA POP?
PAELLA POP es un proyecto de arte relacional dedicado a organizar una serie de eventos culturales en los principales núcleos internacionales donde se gesta el arte contemporáneo. Propone nuevas relaciones transdisciplinares entre las artes y el público asistente, desde un prisma transgresor y en consonancia con los últimos debates de la actualidad.
El motivo central de PAELLA POP, y especial atractivo del evento, es la relación del arte con la elaboración de una gran paella híbrida que mantiene su carácter tradicional de lugar de encuentro y relaciones, pero varía sus ingredientes en función de la cultura en la que se presenta. En cada evento los asistentes disfrutarán de un plato de esta original paella acompañado de performance, danza, música e instalaciones, entre otras disciplinas, gracias a la colaboración de profesionales emergentes residentes en cada ciudad donde se realiza la convocatoria.
Por qué PAELLA POP?
El mundo, ahora pequeño y veloz nos modela, mezcla y funde.
Nómadas de la eterna búsqueda, híbridos en el universo creciente,
todo se transforma y relaciona, mientras todo se mueve.
Ahora que todos somos diferentes, nadie lo es.
PAELLA POP nace en la creencia de que el arte debe ser divertido, interactivo y cuestionador. Arte como experiencia vivencial y de capacidad generadora, sustentado en una base conceptual y filosófica relacionada con las innovaciones en ámbitos del conocimiento. A partir de los planteamientos de Nicolas Bourriaud surge el arte relacional, con el que se pretende propiciar el encuentro y sus sinergias.
A continuación presentamos las motivaciones y características comunes de PAELLA POP:
Cuestionador
Proponemos preguntas de interés general con la intención de cuestionar los estereotipos establecidos, como las distinciones de género, raza y sexualidad. Por ello ayudamos a construir un futuro superado, basado en la ambigüedad Queer como unidad y como transgresión de lo establecido.
híbrido
Los campos más interesantes de estudio son las infinitas fusiones entre los nodos. Lugares de no-límites, de conceptos abiertos y cambiantes para un mañana mestizo y rico en matices. Donde se funden las relaciones entre alta cultura, cultura mediática y cultura popular, ofreciendo nuevos lenguajes creados por la combinación en arte de culturas diferentes, llevando las tradiciones del lugar de origen al mundo global de hoy.
transdisciplinar
Aunamos diferentes lenguajes artísticos y gastronomía porque nos interesa el arte relacional, donde prima la vivencia y el disfrute artístico más allá del arte-objeto. Creando un ambiente propicio para la reflexión y generación de sinergias entre los asistentes.
proactivo
Usamos la motivación y la ironía para replantear temas de actualidad, ofreciendo la posibilidad de originar múltiples soluciones abiertas y constructivas. La intención es activar al espectador y que se convierta en un interlocutor capaz de modelar los conceptos con su propia selección de estímulos.
nutritivo
Colaboramos en la dinamización de los barrios en los que intervenimos, ofreciendo a los vecinos, artistas, amantes del arte y la gastronomía un acercamiento a las propuestas emergentes. Con estas nuevas propuestas, códigos y lenguajes se genera cultura y se amplía el imaginario colectivo, primeros pasos para una transformación social.
generador
Imaginemos que el aleteo de una mariposa puede desencadenar un huracán. Pretendemos que las acciones que acontezcan tengan una repercusión tanto en la mente del visitante como en la de los propios agentes de la acción, produciendo una intoxicación mutua.
nómada
Entendemos los eventos Pop-Up como nuevos espacios de libertad para la creatividad y la generación de nuevas ideas, donde las minorías tienen voz y el cambio social tiene un lugar. Hoy la sociedad tiene la necesidad del movimiento constante, por ello proponemos un proyecto migratorio que interrelaciona los núcleos artísticos.
colaborativo
Las propuestas se gestan en diálogo horizontal con artistas provenientes de diferentes orígenes, planteamientos y disciplinas. Entre artistas y asistentes se cocina la energía generadora de PAELLA POP.
visual
utilizamos una cuidada estética que remite a un futuro cercano y que ilustra las características anteriores con referencias a lo Queer y a las series B.
