According to a Hindu legend, the game of chess is a struggle for territorial dominance; a game in which a king sets out to regain his power. A brigade commanded by a king and queen. In general terms, the game of chess has four basic elements: infantry, cavalry, elephants and chariots. The public spheres of power are represented and underpin the game. To use it as a heritage education strategy centred on regional development is to engage in an effective decolonialist social and educational practice. Prof José Cirillo seeks, from memory and the social phenomena that make up the public sphere, an artistic, sociological and anthropological construction capable of strengthening social belonging through playfulness and the creative inventiveness involved in the production and circulation of the arts.

Admission is free and everyone is invited.
