The festival converts historic courtyards of some of Tortosa\u2019s most impressive buildings into stages for various art installations. T<strong>he objective of the festival is to turn Tortosa into a backdrop for creation and highlight the city\u2019s architectural heritage, as well as disseminating ephemeral art<\/strong> and giving different audiences access to it. It thereby opens up a dialogue between more classical architecture from various centuries with the most contemporary works of art.<\/p><br \/>\n<p><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"vc-incubalia-image-huge\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vc-incubalia-image-huge__mobile-picture brightness-100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tortosaturisme.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/2-cel-obert-ds.mb_.jpg\" alt=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vc-incubalia-image-huge__desktop-picture brightness-100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tortosaturisme.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/2-cel-obert-ds.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"vc-incubalia-spacer\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"vc-incubalia-text-1-column-subtitle\"><div class=\"vc-incubalia-text-1-column-subtitle__text\"><\/p><br \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The works of the architects, artists and designers, created down to the millimetre for each specific courtyard, are judged by a jury, which evaluates the technique, the integration with the theme also the artistic concept. <strong>Each edition embraces a different maxim<\/strong> and so some editions have seen the courtyards filled with colours, while others have included artworks dealing with the concept of time, perspective and contrast. However, remember that the courtyards with these artworks <strong>can only be visited for three days<\/strong>.
