Latitudes has worked with artists including Lara Almarcegui, David Bestué, Mariana Castillo Deball, Heman Chong, Laia Estruch, José Antonio Hernández-Díez, Christina Hemauer & Roman Keller, Joan Morey, Jorge Satorre and Lawrence Weiner; and has organised exhibitions at venues including MACBA Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona (2016 and 2021), Fabra i Coats: Centre d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona (2018 and 2020), CAPC musée d’art contemporain de Bordeaux (2017), Museo de Arte Contemporáneo Castilla y León (MUSAC) (2011), Kunsthal Århus (2011), Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam (2010), New Museum, New York (2010) Arnolfini, Bristol (2009) and the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin (2008), amongst others.
- Continue reading... Latitudes commissioned a series of ten public realm projects in Europe's largest seaport, the Port of Rotterdam, spanning a year (2009) and conceptualised and curated the inaugural two editions of city-wide interventions in unique private and civic spaces for the Barcelona Gallery Weekend (2015 and 2016).
Some of Latitudes’ most distinctive projects have disrupted the linear progression of research, production and culminating presentation. For instance, the solo projects commissioned for the two editions of ‘NO SOUL FOR SALE’ (X Initiative in New York, 2009 and Tate Modern in London, 2010), and the production of a weekly tabloid “live-edited” within ‘The Last Newspaper’ exhibition at the New Museum, New York (2010).
Beyond project-based work, Latitudes has actively participated in public lectures and conversations in venues including PUBLICS, Helsinki (2022), Garage Museum of Contemporary Art, Moscow (2019), Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires (2019), Fundació Antoni Tàpies, Barcelona (2017), ARCOmadrid (2011, 2017), de Appel, Amsterdam (2016), Chisenhale Gallery, London (2015), Athens Biennale (2015), The Common Guild, Glasgow (2013) and Sharjah Art Foundation (2012).
Latitudes has been part of mentorship programmes such as Barcelona Producció, Centre d’Art La Capella (2016, 2017–18 and 2019–20) and acted as Guest Faculty at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in Canada (2015 and 2017). Latitudes facilitated a 10-day curatorial intensive for the NUS Museum in Singapore (2014) and the first Nature Addicts Fund Travelling Academy during dOCUMENTA 13 (2012). Latitudes convened and moderated 30 hour-long presentations during “The Dutch Assembly” in ARCOmadrid (2012) and the three-day symposium of the Sharjah Biennial 8 (2007).
Participation in residencies has played a crucial role in Latitudes’ research with fieldwork conducted in locations such as Askeaton (2018 and 2023), San Francisco (2015), Melbourne (2014), Hong Kong, Hong Kong (2013), Mexico City (2012), and Frankfurt (2008).
Latitudes’ editorial endeavours have resulted in publications, including “LAND, ART: A Cultural Ecology Handbook” (2006) and the monograph “Lara Almarcegui: Projects 1995–2010” (2011). Additionally, they have edited catalogues such as “Coses que les coses diuen” (2021) or “Amikejo” (2011), while also contributing as guest editors of the 500-page “green issue” of UOVO magazine (2007) as well as artist books by Martí Anson (2011), Christina Hemauer and Roman Keller (2011) and Simon Fujiwara (2009).
Moreover, writing has formed an integral part of Latitudes’s critical engagement with contemporary artistic practices and has included contributions to publications by the Holt/Smithson Foundation (2024); Freelands Foundation (2024); TBA21 Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (2023); Fabra i Coats: Centre d'Art Contemporani (2021), CAIRN Centre d’Art (2019), La Capella (2016, 2017, 2019–20), IMA Brisbane/Monash University Museum of Art (2016) and the Walker Art Center (2007), and magazines including frieze, art-agenda, UOVO, Mousse, Artlink, Spike, Atlántica, Untitled, Art&Co, Tate Etc., and Contemporary Visual Arts.
Between 2016 and 2022 Latitudes edited “Incidents (of Travel)”, twenty dispatches published online produced by KADIST narrating day-long encounters between global artists and curators. Since 2022, Latitudes are individual Active Members of Gallery Climate Coalition.
Latitudes has curated numerous exhibitions, including the inaugural triennial Panorama “Notes for an Eye Fire” (with Hiuwai Chu, 2021) and “José Antonio Hernández-Diez: I Will Fear no Evil” (2016) both at MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona; “Things Things Say” (2020) and “Joan Morey. COLAPSE” (2018) both at Fabra i Coats: Centre d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona; “4,543 billion. The Matter of Matter” at CAPC Musée d'art contemporain de Bordeaux (2017); and the city-wide interventions “Compositions” for the first two Barcelona Gallery Weekend (2015 and 2016), among others. More here.

From its beginning in 2005, Latitudes’ curatorial practice has been critically engaging with environmental concerns through contemporary art — check the extended version of this Environmental Policy Statement for more details. Since 2023 we are individual Active Members of the Gallery Climate Coalition, an international coalition of over 1500+ artists, galleries, museums and professionals from 50+ countries that providing sustainability guidelines for the visual arts sector. Additionally, Latitudes was a Founding Member of GCC Spain, one of the seven International Volunteer Chapters affiliated to GCC (2022–24).
As Active Members we are committed to measuring and sharing our carbon footprint on a yearly basis to comply with the GCC target of contributing to the global arts sector target of a 50% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 (when compared to a 2019 baseline). Following GCC guidelines, rather than purchasing carbon offsets we set aside a yearly fund to be spent on low-carbon purchasing options that would otherwise be unaffordable. Our intention is to eliminate unwarranted air travel when there is an alternative rail or sea route that takes less 7 hours – a policy adopted by the Barcelona City Council in 2020.
Latitudes requests external collaborators opt for train or alternative low-carbon transit and freight options and to avoid single-use materials when transporting works or for events. In line with GCC’s guidelines (and with Gustav Metzger’s RAF/Reduce Art Flights campaign) this demands are reflected in collaboration agreements and work contracts. We hope to lead by example in implementing a transversal sustainability strategy in the planning of exhibitions from an early stage until the end-of-life handling of all the materials that have given shape to the project, ensuring that any production is locally tuned.
In our personal lives, we apply the principles of circular economy: Refuse, Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Refurbish, Remanufacture, Repurpose, Recycle, Recover. We do not own a car and use public transport networks. And last but not least, Latitudes banks with an ethical bank which invests in accordance with environmental, social and governance criteria.
Latitudes’s carbon emissions were 17.4tCo2e in 2019 (baseline year), 3.8tCo2e in 2022 and 1.5tCo2e in 2023. Our carbon footprint report considers emissions across various aspects of our activities. This includes air and surface travel (train, coach, taxi, car, metro, bus and ferry), accommodation (hotel, self-catered property), energy consumption (electricity and gas) and digital use (web hosting, cloud storage, email and video calls). We use the GCC Carbon Calculator to ensure consistent and accurate reporting.
According to websitecarbon.com, this website produces 16.76kg of C02 equivalent per year and consumes 46kWh of energy, enough electricity to drive 295km in an electric car.
