ACENTO 2016

With a mandate to support artistic creation and research centred on performative work with the body, the Artists in Residence programme is organised jointly by La Casa Encendida and CA2M.

Acento is a three-day seminar in which the projects carried out during the Artists in Residence programme in 2015 will be presented in public. The idea is also to offer a forum where the artists chosen for the programme in 2016 can meet the artists who have just passed through the experience in 2015. Over the three days the two organising institutions wish to focus on a rethinking of artistic production using the body, understanding it as a social body and as a political construct that produces knowledge from the sentient.

The artists chosen in 2015 were: Alejandra Pombo, Ignacio de Antonio, Los bárbaros: Miguel Rojo & Javier Hernando, Marisol López Rubio, Poderío vital, Silvia Zayas and Terrorismo de autor.

The artists chosen in 2016 are: Lilli Hartman, Gérald Kurdian, Norberto Llopis, Julián Pacomio , Claudia Pagés, Quim Pujol and Silvia Ulloa.

Admission in CA2M is free until reaching capacity.
