A meeting with Santiago Olmo, director of the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea and Juan Ramón Corpas Mauleón.

Hamish Fulton has specialized in the art of walking and in the exhibition Walking East he reflects with different pieces the experience of having walked the French Way in reverse direction, walking backwards. Even "turning it upside down" this work connects with one of the busiest routes in Europe, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, which keeps alive the cultural practice of walking to which Fulton's work is dedicated.

In Cómo hacer cosas con El Camino de Santiago we will deal with the richness and meaning of the Camino, its cultural relevance and its presence in contemporary creation, in conversation with Santiago Olmo, director of the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea, promoter of various artistic projects around the Camino, and with Juan Ramón Corpas Mauleón, doctor and writer who has devoted much of his life to the Jacobean world as a pilgrim, author of several monographs or as a member of the Jacobean Council, among other organizations.
