Buscando guanábana ando yo is the first solo exhibition devoted to Sol Calero at an art centre in Madrid and brings together some of her oeuvre’s central themes and formats. These include the building of collective spaces, which make up a large portion of Calero’s output and draw on her interest in architecture and design.
The Museo CA2M is presenting the first solo show by the artist Santiago Sierra in a Madrid institution. This exhibition consists of a compilation and analysis of one of the most common resources in the practice of Santiago Sierra (Madrid, Spain, 1966) throughout his entire artistic career: pictures of people facing the wall, like inverse ‘portraits’ in which the subject’s identity is negated or dissolved in anomie.
The world of Miki Leal is a world of jazz, cinema, the American lifestyle and sport, as well as his family world, his domestic environment and within it his personal belongings.
ENCOUNTERS IN THE GALLERY. WEEKEND VISITS
On Saturday afternoons and Sunday mornings we invite you to visit the exhibitions with Madrid Negro, who will take us on a journey through the different proposals through their visit project ‘Zafra or how to harvest the revolt’.
29th IMAGE STUDY WORKSHOPS. DE-FOLKLORISING THE ROMA.
This conference will try to reflect on the image that has been given to the gypsy throughout the history of art, from the typified image of the woman and her appearance in visual culture to the gypsy represented as a legacy of Lorca's reconstruction.
MY MOTHER SLIPPED A SOURSOP INTO MY SUITCASE. WRITING WORKSHOP FROM THE SOUTH
We propose a four-session writing workshop in dialogue with the exhibition Buscando guanábana ando yo by the artist Sol Calero. A workshop that looks for connections between migration, kilos of suitcases and the fruits and plants that travel with us.
Part of a group of figurative women painters like Esther Boix and Isabel Villar, Carmen Pagés’s work reflects openly on social injustices and how power is wielded over the least fortunate in today’s societies.
GROUP TOURS
We propose a group tour of the museum's exhibitions and discover what happens in each encounter. A collective experience, open to all kinds of groups on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Each tour will be different, and we will build it as we go along, generating unexpected dialogues.
FRUITY RESONANCES: SCENTS, TEXTURES AND FLAVOURS OF MEMORY
This workshop for families in the form of a sensory experience through fruit invites us to unfold a map of memories in dialogue with Sol Calero's exhibition. I am looking for guanábana.
HA-HA WALL. POSITIONAL VISITS
The artist Ángela Cuadra invites us on a guided tour of the exhibition 1502 people facing the wall, where she will approach the artist's work from the paradoxes of the gaze, the devices of visibility and concealment with which the facts are presented to us.
Here you’ll find all the educational programming and activities of the CA2M Museum for everyone: families, young people, teacher training and groups of preschool, primary, secondary and baccalaureate students.
