Tactical Tourism

Tactical Tourism Art in Public Space and New Comunication Technologies Tactical Tourism’s tours are presented by performers using the strategies of tourist agencies.

Tactical Tourism was born both as a project for the realisation of different
kinds of art interventions in the public realm, and as a group of artists
(Mariano Maturana, Maite Ninou, Xavier Manubens and Consol Rodríguez)
that realises interventions such as tours, installations and actions of diverse nature, in both urban and rural public spaces since 2001. Our organization considers tourism a mass

media; the same way TV, the radio, the press and the Internet are mass media, as well. Tourism industry has transformed the “tour” into a medium with its own codes and protocols–tacit codes and protocols that we socially accept usually without questioning them. We accept the idea of being guided to a place and being told the history and events related to such location. The matters studied in these tours and interventions can vary according to the space and (hi)stories subject to investigation. These (hi)stories have their starting point in real historic or contemporary issues, though fiction, or a mix of fiction and the real, is not discarded. Our tours consist of a route through the city or the rural public space. During the journey, places would be visited that are related to the narrated events. Tracks and remainders would be sought: graffiti, monuments buildings, walls, squares, streets, venues, etc. The visited space could also have been previously “intervened” by us according to the designed route through the use of graffiti, mise en scène, performances, participative actions, etc. Different kinds of transport means would be used depending on the nature of the designed “tour”. The last years we are developing apps for mobile phone technologies (iOS and Android), Augmented Reality technology. Those technologies are improving our projects and concepts developments.

Video 360º immersive. VR Video. Tactical Tourism. Places in the neighborhood 'Gracia' in Barcelona. Public spaces shared by neighbors make life better. In this neighborhood gradually cars are disappearing from the landscape. It's nice to walk around these places, sit and watch the daily life spent without any goal beyond the fact of being.
'Plazas de Gracia' en Barcelona. Los espacios públicos compartidos por los vecinos hacen que la vida sea mejor. En este barrio poco a poco los coches están desapareciendo del paisaje, falta mucho pero va por el buen camino. Es agradable pasear por estas plazas, sentarse a contemplar la vida cotidiana que transcurre sin ningún objetivo más allá del hecho de estar y ser.

Since its establishment in 2001,Tactical Tourism, a group of artists based in Barcelona, has been organizing interventions in public spaces drawing on the practises and language of tourism. Their artistic interventions have generally been aimed at rescuing both personal and political memories of the city, in particular those invisible life (hi)stories hidden in everyday spaces of the city. Their projects have included Love Story, You are here,The Route of Infamy and the Secret Guide to Barcelona. The most prominent of these interventions was the ‘Route of Anarchism’, which explored some of the more emblematic spaces and moments of the libertarian movement in Barcelona.

What does the MTA subway map show? What does it not show? What couldn’t it show? Why do city planners make maps anyway? And why do experts give tours?
