nunArt Creacions is a cultural organization based in Guinardó (Barcelona), and founded in 2019 as a sibling project of nunArt association (2007-2020).
nunArt Creacions has the will to offer an expansive, kind and concious space, with activities aimed at all people wanting to experiment different movement practices, to do artistic research or focus on performing arts professionally.
nunArt Creacions’ leading team projects its vision, but the organization is only possible thanks to to a large number of artsists, friends and other organizations, which through exchanges and collaborations facilitate nunArt’s task while developing their professional artistic activities.
We think that personal research and artistic creativity needn’t to be activities restricted to the professional field of the performing arts, but can also be a part of the vital and expressive developement of any individual, at any age. It is for this reason that the activites that we do take in account diverse potential profiles.

History
Making a bit of history, a group of artists composed by Gisela Creus, Clara Bes, Gemma Martínez, Mariona Castillo and Miquel Barcelona, were in year 2007 the members founders of nunArt non-profit Association, making it a successful and referent place in cultural field in Barcelona city.
In September 2019 nunArt Association, due to the volume and the needs of the project, was divided in two. This division had to do with the intention to be able to grow and to manage with more focus the potential and volume of the activities in each place.
nunArt ( nunArt Gracia ) and nunArt Creacions ( nunArt Guinardó ), were a two associations, group of persons, artists and friends that wanted to promote the coexistence and artistic complicity of proximity. We did it having available two places: nunArt Gracia, which was inaugurated in year 2007, and nunArt Guinardó inaugurated in year 2012.
Gisela Creus and Laura Vilar found nunArt Creations Association, born from the essence of nunArt and with the desire to clarify and deepen the focus toward the performing arts professional, with an oriented look in artistic research, conscious spaces or indiscipline, as well as towards international ties.
In the nunArt (s) we have programmed training for all levels: from initiation to professional level, regular, intensive, monographic classes, rehearsal and working progress exhibitions. Dance, music and theater cycles are also welcomed, as well as the exhibitions of the project created by the residences.
nunArt Guinardó management team is currently conformed by Gisela Creus (dancer, choreographer, teacher and nunArt and nunArt Creaciones co-founder ) and Laura Vilar (dancer, creator, teacher and researcher, nunArt Creaciones co-founder). They are responsible for devising and coordinating the activity carried out, as well as ensuring that the project is sustainable, conscious and flexible to the needs of the moment.
nunArt is possible thanks to a large number of artists, friends and related entities that are part of this project through collaborations and exchanges that, on the one hand, it allows each one to develop proffesionally , while to nunArt allows to keep the structure.
nunArt is an open place for the training, research and creation. We believe that individual exploration and artistic creativity do not only have to be practices restricted to the professional field, but also can be part of the vital and expressive development of any individual, at any age. Therefore, ours is a place that, in its 10 years of existence, has established itself as a center for the development of the local and international scenic, training and creative fabric, but also with the disire of being open to people of any professional field who want to explore their human and expressive potential.
