ONE FANZINE A DAY
As part of our program of library activities, CA2M will open a space for research and reflection revolving around independent editorial projects. An initiative that aims to create an archive of editions that are difficult to classify with a view to spreading and preserving this type of publication.
Itineraries
This space within the library came about naturally as a response to our efforts to provide room for, to lend visibility to and to register bibliographic references that are proposed as new routes for reading and expanding the library’s catalogue and to tie in with the art centre’s activities and exhibitions.
Todos los conciertos, todas las noches, todo vacío brings some of Ana Laura Aláez's latest works into dialogue with other works from the beginning of her career. The exhibition is cast as a return to the source, going back to the beginning and working in the cracks of the themes that have been a part of her work over the last twenty years.
Autoplacer Festival 2020
Autoplacer is back for two days of concerts on the terrace at CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo. This year’s event will be very special and adapted to the so-called new normality. Concerts by Ajuar, Rebe, Morreo, Pantocrátor, Tzetze, Polseguera, Somos la Herencia, Toys Sarasas.
Autoeclipse is an exhibition designed to be a sort of retrospective of recent works, one that nonetheless allows us to take a critical look at Armando Andrade Tudela's work to date. The pieces on display work through the tensions they create with their predecessors, with Armando's own biography, and with the political and social development of the places where the artist has lived, reflecting an artistic endeavour in the public and social space as well as in the more intimate, private one.
Querer parecer noche brings together different forms of artistic production in Madrid. Its creations are split between a longer tradition of historical nostalgia and the current histrionic moment, with their different sensibilities and ways of living, where the 'local' is built on the fine line between those who live there and those who are passing through.
3_Eras is an unpublished text by José Luis Brea based on the film version of the book Las tres eras de la imagen.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.
The CA2M Collection VI revolves this time around the idea of art as a means to get closer to reality, as a space to critically gaze the past to finally understand the present as well as to imagine the future. The selected artworks bring us closer to stories, wether real or not, which encourage us to reflect on these premises.
