Por un lugar en el sol<\/em> brings together an artistic research project centred on two holiday complexes built to organise the leisure time of the working class: the Col\u00f3nia de F\u00e9rias Um Lugar ao Sol in Caparica, inaugurated in 1938 by the Funda\u00e7\u00e3o Nacional para a Alegria no Trabalho, and the Ciudad Residencial Tiempo Libre in Marbella, opened in 1962 by the Obra Sindical de Educaci\u00f3n y Descanso.<\/p>\n

Located in areas where tourism is the main source of income, these two architectural projects provide a means of tracing the industrialisation of holidays and the political, social and economic transformations undergone by these models of collective leisure. Although they were conceived under the dictatorships of Ant\u00f3nio de Oliveira Salazar and Francisco Franco, both holiday complexes continued to operate under the democratic governments that followed.<\/p>\n

The publication unfolds through a collection of postcards, posters, press cuttings, annotations, film stills and photographs gathered during the research. These materials enter into dialogue with images recorded at the two locations, interweaving different temporalities to reconstruct the history of spaces conceived as promises of collective well-being.<\/p>\n

Por un lugar en el sol<\/em> reflects on the relationships between architecture, tourism, work and leisure, as well as on the gradual commodification of places that once made it possible to imagine holidays within everyone\u2019s reach.<\/p>\n
