Abstract The author deals with problems of the separate thinking of the metropolis. The metropolitan locality is defined by specific thinking, characteristic celebration of life, local pride, roots and at the same time by tolerance, openness and hospitality. This paper undertakes a concept of metropolitan locality that is presented in the cultural projects of Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona. The reflections are organized around two projects: Barcelona – València – Palma/Barcelona – Valencia – Palma. Una història de confluències i divergèncie/Una historia de confluencias y divergencias (2010) and Local, local! La ciutat que ve / La ciudad que viene (2010). The main idea expressed in the article concerns the necessity of local thinking in contemporary culture.
