Carol 53 is an open environment which stimulates, encourages and promotes the initiatives of individuals or groups. It’s an apolitical and non-discriminating space. We want to offer a neutral environment where divergent or convergent social categories can confront each other and share ideas, where the relationships between different generations can be redefined, with the purpose of developing the city and its culture.
Carol 53 is a pilot programme which can serve as a model of pragmatic approach for ginger groups and for abandoned or degraded spaces whose potential is ignored or lost during bureaucratic processes which result in their total destruction. The method is the contractual statement of the space and the situations which define it.
