ELENA ALONSO. IN THE CARE OF THE SMALL SHADOWS
Al cuidado de las pequeñas sombras (In the care of the small shadows) is a site-specific installation created by Elena Alonso for the terrace of the Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo Museum, consisting of four sculptures conceived as a bat shelter.
CA2M DIALECT
For the first time, more than 400 works by 250 artists are coming together in an exhibition that showcases the CA2M collections and takes up the entire museum space. It is a celebration of what the museum represents and has represented from the beginning. This journey begins with the historical avant-garde - all the artists who accompanied Picasso at the Pavilion of the Spanish Republic - and continues through history up to the present day. It is not only an international exhibition, as are all the CA2M and the ARCO Foundation collections, but also a story that is told from inside this institution, from the collections it holds, and ultimately, from Móstoles.

SYNTACTIC TACTIC. DIEGO BIANCHI
By supposing that logic makes chaos natural and order artificial, we are positing a physical and conceptual experiment of what an exhibition space is. Syntactic Tactic . Diego Bianchi is an exercise in disassembling. A white cube, a neutral space, windowless, consisting of white walls and a source of light shining from top to bottom, becomes the raw material for a plausible disassembling. Based on an absence of pre-defined moulds and behavioural guidelines, this project highlights a number of exhibition practices.

MIRROR AND KINGDOM / ORNAMENT AND STATE. ÁLVARO PERDICES
Espejo y Reino / Ornamento y Estado is an installation by artist Álvaro Perdices and curated by María Virginia Jaua. The project – designed specifically for the spaces of the CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo – puts forward the concept of confronting the idea of the archive with the deconstruction of the notions of State and institution framed within the personal and the historical.

PEDRO NEVES MARQUES
YWY, Visions presents new works by Pedro Neves Marques with actress and activist Zahy Guajajara, in which she plays an indigenous android named YWY.
The exhibition brings together films, interviews, exchanges, images and other elements conceptualized by other authors around the character, which contribute to expanding his world.
CAPSULE COLLECTION: SARA RAMO
This metal dinosaur is a ‘part’ of a larger group of artworks made from pieces of playground furniture from the 1970s, made in collaboration with the Mamoan family business in the city of Bello Horizonte in Brazil, which continues using the same designs from decades ago.
Over the months of January and February, primary school students will have the chance to visit the Carlos Garaicoa exhibition at the CA2M in an unexpected way. Playing with the idea that each work makes it possible to open up a narrative universe, we have invited María Salgado to come up with a route through the exhibition, punctuating it with the spoken word.

NACHO CRIADO. NOT THE VOICE OF ONE CALLING IN THE DESERT
One of the lines of work undertaken by CA2M is to revitalise the history of contemporary art exhibitions in Madrid. For this one-object exhibition by Nacho Criado, we focus on Madrid: Espacio de interferencias (Madrid: Space of Interferences), curated in 1990 by the art theorist and historian Javier Maderuelo (Madrid, 1950) for the Círculo de Bellas Artes.

THE INFINITELY VARIABLE IDEAL OF THE POPULAR
The exhibition The Infinitely Variable Ideal of the Popular attempts to review the work of Jeremy Deller by incorporating early as well as recent work, bearing in mind that this is the first exhibition of its kind presented in a Spanish-speaking country. The selected pieces make evident the manner in which Deller departs from object production in order to give way to collective actions, which arise from within the art sphere, only to later desert it.
