About Pablo Arboleda

Pablo Arboleda graduated as an architect, and his interdisciplinary education and working history spans heritage, urban studies, geography, anthropology, and arts. At present, he is a ‘Ramón y Cajal’ Senior Fellow in the Department of Anthropology of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), and prior to this, he accumulated more than 10 years affiliated to different universities in Spain, France, Canada, Germany, and the UK. His research tackles the multifaceted dimensions of modern ruins in post-industrial and post-crises scenarios, opening a series of debates on the futures of urban peripheries, participatory place-making, alternative conservation, and counter-aesthetics reclaimed. He approaches these angles through site-specific studies, experimental collaborations, urban exploration, and visual methods—in his contributions, the boundaries between science and artistic practices are blurred, or even inexistent. Further information about his profile and publications is available at www.pabloarboleda.com.
