New artistic productions for Sónar Festival

SonarPLANTA was a joint initiative between PLANTA and Sónar, International Festival of Advanced Music and New Media Art, to encourage new artistic productions emerging in the cultural space between new technologies and contemporary creation. SonarPLANTA promoted research and experimentation in creative languages around technology and supported the work of the current generation of digital artists.

Between 2014 and 2017, SonarPLANTA invited international artists to take part every year through a call to present New Media Art proposals inspired by the PLANTA project. The project selected for each edition was exclusively produced and made its debut in the SonarPLANTA space at the Sónar event held for the Day of Barcelona.

Meeting point for new international film talent

The Fundació Sorigué presented in April 2014, ‘MOVIEMENT. Fundació Sorigué’, an international meeting of film schools that brought together students with prestigious professionals from the film and audiovisual sector.

Masía Sant Jordi de Mollé, a historic site surrounded by nature in the region of La Noguera (Lleida), where the Sorigué group develops part of its agricultural activity, was the place chosen to accommodate the participants. La Plana del Corb, located in Balaguer (Lleida), which houses the industrial facilities of the business group, was the stage given to the participants to carry out their productions.
