Vasc artist Pepo Salazar gives the 14th intervention on this pillar who gives the name to this non profit art space in Madrid middtown. The artist uses some signs of historic avant-gardé movements and other subcultures, and adds anothers from the market culture, in order to reveal how the social system defuses enemy codes and also how micropolitics could act as a resistence.
