Juan Ruiz Antón is the director of TILDE, an organization for the promotion of Ibero-American cinema in Norway founded in 2018. The institution promotes films and events that would rarely make it to the commercial circuit in the Nordic countries and organises ESCENA – Oslo Ibero-American Film Days, a yearly festival that showcases Ibero-American cinema from 2019. The festival aims to shed light on the cultural, social, political and artistic reality of the region in Norway and make these films accessible to a broad Norwegian audience. TILDE has established a wide collaborating network with cultural, political and social actors that engage in the cultural exchange between Norway and the Ibero-American region such as Embassies, the University of Oslo, the Oslo International Flamenco Festival and Mirage Festival.
Juan is also an architect specialising in the rehabilitation and transformation of existing and listed buildings. He has collaborated in programming and design on many projects for public use, event spaces and cinemas.
