Upcoming activities
Welcome to Fuga! Here, no programmes are imposed and there are no hierarchies. FUGA is an open space where young people aged 16 to 23 who are interested in culture and art can get involved in the museum’s cultural programming. It’s a space where they can share interests and learning, connect with artists and design their own project.
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.
making a mountain out of a molehill
We invite infant and primary classes to participate in this workshop to invoke the power of clay and the liveliness of objects, where children will be mediums. This workshop is a stronghold of imagination, creation and magic, so necessary in our learning spaces.
LAST NIGHT I DREAMED THAT I FOUND MYSELF (AGAIN), LAST NIGHT I DREAMED
In this edition of the Reading Group, we want to tinker with what is taken for granted, to discover new backgrounds, to embark on artistic expressions and dive into tales and stories, told and sung, to play and share journeys, our own and others.
Where Things Go On is a group formed by former participants of youth programmes with an interest in culture, art and community work.
NAILS AND THUMBTACKS
We are Clavos y Chinchetas, a small group dedicated to artistic experimentation through D.I.Y. and self-publishing. If you are between 13 and 21 years old and you are interested in art, this is a space for you to experiment freely.
ODD DANCE
Odd Dance is a workshop for all kinds of bodies with all types of experience on dance floors and in festivals and ballrooms, where you can practise classical couple dances in a trio.
DANCING THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
In this workshop for girls and boys from 6 to 12 years old, we will begin by investigating our body and all its possibilities in movement. We will dance in company, with time and space, and we will create a place of artistic expression enriched by the generational diversity of the group.
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’.
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.
CIUDAD SUR. GREEN SPECTRUMS: FROM THYME GREEN TO RADIOACTIVE GREEN
Ciudad Sur is a space for shared experimentation in which, taking Móstoles as a starting point, we want to investigate the many faces and the many riches that generate a sense of belonging in the cities of the metropolitan area of Madrid.
DONKEY’S EARS. TOUR-WORKSHOP FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL AND BACCALAUREATE GROUPS
We will work on the exhibitions of Santiago Sierra and Sol Calero. Exploring these two exhibitions with the students will allow us to connect themes such as identity, migration and power.

MY MOTHER SLIPPED A SOURSOP INTO MY SUITCASE. WRITING WORKSHOP FROM THE SOUTH

Activities Publications
Todo lo que veo me sobrevivirá, que recoge el doble proyecto retrospectivo de las exposiciones Todo lo que veo me sobrevivirá celebrada en la Sala Alcalá 31 y En la hora violeta, todavía visitable en el Museo Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo, ambas con motivo del setenta aniversario del nacimiento de Juan Muñoz.
3_Eras is an unpublished text by José Luis Brea based on the film version of the book Las tres eras de la imagen. This film, made by María Virginia Jaua and José Luis Brea, included visual and sonic imagery.
La réplica infiel se interroga sobre la compleja relación que el arte establece con su materialidad, planteándose de qué manera se encarna el pensamiento en la forma, en el objeto, en la acción o en el cuerpo, resistiendo tanto a la promesa implícita en la idea, como a las tensiones e incertidumbres generadas por su inserción en las instituciones, los rituales de la cultura y los órdenes de lo real y lo posible.
Con alrededor de sesenta artistas de reconocida trayectoria internacional, David G. Torres, comisario de la exposición "PUNK. Sus rastros en el arte contemporáneo", plantea una visión transversal del punk como catalizador de una serie de estéticas, políticas y actitudes culturales, que desde sus inicios hasta hoy han marcado un posicionamiento dentro del arte contemporáneo. Una corriente anímica ligada a un movimiento musical muy característico que se dilata en diferentes actitudes dentro de la acción artística y su planteamiento conceptual.
La exposición "PER/FORM. Cómo hacer cosas con (sin) palabras" está comisariada por Chantal Pontbriand, figura fundamental para entender el desarrollo de la performance, desde sus inicios hasta la actualidad. En su labor como crítica y editora de la revista Parachute, Pontbriand, ha liderado la renovación en el discurso de la crítica de arte sobre las nuevas disciplinas que nacen en los años sesenta, tales como la performance, la instalación y los nuevos medios artísticos. Esta exposición es, en consecuencia, una actividad viva y en permanente desarrollo, donde las instalaciones, fotografías, películas, documentos, performances en directo, charlas y coloquios habitan el espacio del CA2M, proponiendo con todo ello una visión más amplia del tradicional concepto de exposición.
La exposición colectiva Sin motivo aparente es una muestra que nos aproxima a la obra de arte contemplada al margen de componentes externos. Partiendo de las palabras del artista Lawrence Weiner «Out of the Blue», la exposición gravita en torno a la posibilidad de que las obras de arte no tengan que ceñirse a una trama discursiva concreta. Una invitación al espectador a construir una reflexión propia a partir de las micro historias en las que nos adentra la obra, un territorio reservado para las emociones.
Aernout Mik es uno de los artistas holandeses más reputados internacionalmente. Su obra ha sido objeto de exposiciones individuales en importantes instituciones de todo el mundo, como el MoMA de Nueva York o el Jeu de Paume de París y ha participado en las grandes citas de Arte como las bienales de Venecia, Sao Paolo y Melbourne. A través de sus piezas en vídeo cuidadosamente instaladas, que llegan a incorporar físicamente al propio espectador, Aernout Mik desmenuza algunos de los conflictos presentes en nuestra sociedad.
A través de la exposición Pop Politics: Activismos a 33 Revoluciones, el joven comisario madrileño Iván López Munuera nos sumerge en el complejo mundo de los posicionamientos ideológicos contemporáneos, siempre puestos bajo la lupa de la relación entre música y artes visuales. La exposición está abierta a múltiples interpretaciones y a la actitud activa de sus visitantes, a quienes invita a disfrutar de la música, las imágenes, los films y la cuantiosa información que componen esta muestra.
