A desire to delve deeper into the realm of queerness following our experiences in the queer workshop with teenagers and with teachers and the need to share them has led us to create a changing space where we can continue exploring, thinking and losing ourselves together.
A few years ago we started a collaboration project with teachers from the Enterarte group. This year we will continue this collaboration. We believe that it is critical to underscore the importance of passion and the work of this group of teachers and to continue thinking about the relationships between the museum and the school, opening up processes of research into artistic languages.
POSITIONED VISITS 2020
At the beginning of 2020 we will be opening the exhibition Absurd Humour: A Constellation of Folly in Spain and, similarly to other occasions, we have invited an artist to prepare what we call a Positioned Visit. This time Alba Rihe has created an audio-guide that will take us on a trip through the exhibition.
ARTISTS IN RESIDENCE 2020
Artistas en residencia is a programme organised jointly by La Casa Encendida, CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo and, from 2020, MACBA, whose goal is to support creation and experimentation focused on performative work with the body.
Sofía Museum. Two public collection separated by just a few kilometers away. Both shows answer to two different institutional circumstances, however they both converge in the will to critically stare at reality through art.
CA2M holds Rabih Mroué´s first solo exhibition in Spain. Mroué (Lebanon, 1967) developed his career as director, playwright, performer, essayist and visual artist, his work always reflects on the use of images for (and against) official narratives: from the Lebanese geopolitical reality to the massive production of images of the Syrian revolution.
In the XX century, the issue of the body has had a unique prominent role within the art history and visual culture. CA2M showcases part of its extensive image collection (photographies, videographics and others) of the body by a serial of artists from different decades and years since mid-XX century to the present.
Sin motivo aparente (For no apparent reason) is a collective exhibition showcasing the work of over thirty Spanish and International artists with the single objective of reviewing the relationship between art and public within a context, the CA2M venue, Center where the viewer has been CA2M main objective since its opening five years ago.
