The fourth project of Interventions takes place in the "house of the Grisa" located in Jaén, Spain, where the invited artists take part as Felicidad Moreno, Fernando Quesada, Jorge Galindo, Sofia Jack, Catarina Leitao, Maite Camacho, Marta Jarabo, Moneo Brock, Juan Pablo...
This is a project organized independently by artists and realized in the "house of the Grisa" that is in the Street Higueras Sabater # 6, in Sabiote 23410, Jaen, Spain. Organized by Isidro Blasco, with the help of Sarah Jay

After buying this house in the beautiful village of Sabiote, and before starting the reform, we have invited artists to intervene in the house. We have selected these artists for the potential we have seen in their work and the curiosity that awakens to see what they can do in this context. In this line, INTERVENTIONS 4 seeks to explore how the different architectural elements of this house can be interpreted and modified differently from what is accepted as normal.

This is the fourth project of its kind. Similar projects were held in Fishtown, Philadelphia in 2012; Hudson, New York in 2015 and Brooklyn, New York in 2016. For more information visit: Isidro Blasco
 
The inauguration was take place on July 15, 2017.
INTERVENTIONS 4 was open from Friday, July 14 to Sunday, July 16, 2017
