The Pink evidence
La peluqueria, in almost two years of creation, has been involved in a number of projects that range from new musical performances to a variety of creative projects, such as an experimental wine tasting night and haircutting parties. Thanks to the versatility of the La Peluqueria's concept it has been possible to work together with other organizations to present proposals, new formats and an art lab .
Some examples:
Supporting organizations
Entrepreneurs, Jorge Tadeo Lozano University
Consultandes, Finacial consultancy for creative projects at Los Andes University.
Team Project, Prana Incubadora de empresas creativas.
Camera de Comercio de Bogotá. The Chamber of Commerce. On-line company plans. Entrepreneureal work.
For future projects we are creating the program Artistic Residences to encourage the investigation and exchange of ideas among new dynamic artists. We would like to develop an experimental circuit program (a type of pub crawl but for art not beer) with the help of other similar profit or non-profit organizations.

Focus in
La Peluqueria is a contemporary cultural art center that focuses in on promoting, commercializing and spreading the word of the products in this artistic environment such as cultural events, art exhibitions, new musical proposals and cultural management.
At the same time offering hair design services (as an artistic practice), meeting place, product promotion, press conferences, artistic talks and co-oporative services (venue) of other similar organizations.
We aim to generate new artistic experiences for new audiences using the simplest but most creative language. Bringing art to new audiences and generate reflections of day-to-day life (as happens in a typical hairdressers).
Generating new social events with cultural activities. Encouraging emerging artists. Integrating both disciplines.
La Peluqueria is located in an old restored house in the historical and cultural center of Bogotá, La Candelaria.
There are five main areas in this space:
The Hairdressers. Hair cuts by Art Graduates.
Vitrina. Space to exhibit and sell designer objects by young designers.
Art gallery. Exhibition and sale of works of art by emerging artists.
Café. Somewhere to have a soft drink, coffee or alcoholic beverage.
Events and Social Scene. Evening events, presentations, projections, parties etc.
