The Calote Esférica Cultural Association aims to promote the intersection and confluence of various artistic areas with a particular focus on experimentation and research through art in its multiple aspects and design, seeking and promoting the development of transdisciplinarity.

It is intended that the products resulting from laboratory activity constitute active contributions to the heritage cultural, through its sharing in the formats of shows, editing, publication, exhibition, events and exhibitions.

The association has been operating since 2009.
