Exposició 'Concurs de projectes de la nova Biblioteca de Banyoles'

Looks: The water and the sea
The exhibition, the first of the LOOKS Cycle at the Tarragona headquarters, dedicated this year to WATER, includes twenty images by photographer Pep Escoda and offers a look at this natural element, as the title indicates, water and the sea.
Pep Escoda, Tarragona (1958), has worked as a professional photographer since 1990 and, although he specialized in interior design and architecture photography, he has reached other photographic specialties throughout his career. He has won 21 Lux awards in various categories, portrait, landscape, architecture or personal project.
He has published his photographs in more than 150 books, by publishers such as Taschen, Daab, Teneues or Harper design New York, New York Times, Forbes Magazine and ICON Magazine, among others.
He has been part of many individual and group exhibitions, such as the Tagomago gallery in Barcelona and Paris. Other exhibitions worth highlighting are Sincerely yours, at the Valid Foto gallery in Barcelona, Passion and Melody of Mediterranenan at the Center for Contemporary Art in Saint Petersburg and Portraits at Shed Two on the Tarragona coast pier.
Looks
The LOOKS exhibition cycle is a cultural initiative that weaves the entire territory in a collaborative way, highlighting the local heritage through the observation of the four elements of nature: water, earth, fire and air.
Each of the elements will be the subject of an annual exhibition, completing the series in four years and increasing the legacy of the historical archive of the College of Architects with the donation of photographic records that will build the exhibitions.
In this way, from a local perspective, we will share and debate global commitments.

Exhibition "Port Park"
The Tarragona Region of the College of Architects of Catalonia hosts the “Port Park” exhibition, which can be visited from August 1 to September 29, 2023, in the exhibition hall.
The exhibition includes the winning project, the four finalists and the rest of the proposals presented in the contest of ideas published by the Port of Tarragona for the urban transformation of the environment of the institutional buildings. The idea of the competition was to create a large urban park of 8,000 m² around the institutional and administrative headquarters of the Port Authority of Tarragona that would contribute to improving connectivity with the city of Tarragona and between the Moll de Costa and the Passeig del Miracle, promote sustainable mobility and reduce carbon emissions.
On Thursday, September 14, 2023, at 7 p.m., in the COAC Tarragona assembly hall, the exhibition will be inaugurated with a conference where the winning architects will explain their proposal.
