Over the course of three sessions, we will learn how to produce our own publications, such as fanzines and posters . We will look at different fanzines and low-cost publications, from punk to DIY, queer, photocopies, cut and paste, appropriation, drawing, photography, etc.

Guerrilla communication strategies will be developed aimed at creating a collective publication for distribution at points chosen by the participants.

TARGETED AT YOUNG PEOPLE BETWEEN THE AGES OF 16 AND 23

Activity organized in collaboration with Dirección General de Juventud

Espacio Mutante believes that the end of the school year is the perfect time to take over the museum for a whole week and to build a space where we can spend time together, where we can share and create something between everybody. For this reason we invited the artist Cristina Celada to carry out a summer workshop, where she will help us to experiment with copy-based creative strategies.

A “sweded” film is an amateur homemade remake of a blockbuster movie. In other words it is a precarious, handmade copy and at the same time—or as a direct result—it is truly creative, cheeky and independent. For a whole week we will appropriate all sorts of audiovisual referents like youtube videos, film scenes, trailers, video clips and so on in order to transform them and make a personal and transferrable adaptation.

In this workshop we will dress up, act, build sets and even, on one of the days, camp out in the museum itself. Everything it takes to create our own remake using humour and economy of means.

Enrolment free from 15 June

During the summer vacation, all the children who want to can join us in a workshop to call for rain, thunder and lightning, both inside and outside the museum. We will dance until it starts to thunder, we will light up the darkness and we will get soaked to the skin. Perhaps we will get magical powers but, if not, at least we will cool down.

In this workshop, girls and boys can take over the museum and transform it into a hideout where that can have a wonderful summer.

Children over the age of six

From 19 to 22 de July.

From 11:00 to 13:30h

At the end of every school year we like to think of a different way of starting the summer. This time, the artist Pablo Durango will pay us a visit to lead a workshop exploring new artistic strategies.

The workshop will examine the possibility of building an alternative narrative of our own identity.

Using various techniques like drag, storytelling and playing, we will set off on a journey to different realities and potential fictions.

Opening the portals to other dimensions, transforming our bodies and telling ourselves impossible stories is the point of departure on a journey to Multiversal Arcadia where the only limit is our imagination.

Young people from 13 to 21 years of age

Autoplacer, the music and self-publishing festival held at CA2M for the last thirteen years, is back again in 2022, on Saturday 24 September. Like previous years, the Autoplacer/Sindicalistas collective will bring to Móstoles a selection of groups from the underground Spanish scene in an event which has been defending the inclusion of contemporary forms of music in institutions for over a decade, lending visibility to new sounds and their truly independent processes of publishing, production and diffusion.

This year’s event has scheduled punk veterans Sudor, nouvelle garage melodies from Eterna Joventut, Galician energy with Grande Amore, razor-sharp dream pop from Sofía, old-school pop by La Media Distancia and the techno meets post-punk head-on clash of Alfa Estilo from Valencia. And alongside them, making their debut at Autoplacer are EQX, the winners of the Autoplacer 2021 Rough-Cuts competition, with their brand of disruptive avant-pop.

Autoplacer 2022 has also set aside a section dedicated to electronic music curated by Mosul Mosul in which various DJs and a live set will outline a musical path through afrobeat to witch house, passing through dark techno and trance.

Besides there will also be various invited projects in the field of music and editorial self-publishing.

With concerts by:

SUDOR / ETERNA JOVENTUT / SOFÍA / GRANDE AMORE / ALFA ESTILO / LA MEDIA DISTANCIA / EQX (Winners of Autoplacer 2021 Rough-Cuts)

+ DANCEFLOOR WITH MOSUL MOSUL:

UMBRÍA / GARRITA / GOTHIC SANS / ÜVERDRIVER (Live)

Save the date: 24 September, at Museo CA2M!

Admission free until reaching full capacity.

First of all, we should explain that besides meaning ‘crazy’ or ‘mad’, the Spanish word loca from the title of this workshop “Volvernos Loca” is also used to describe “effeminate” homosexual men and is roughly equivalent to the English terms ‘sissy’ or ‘flaming queen’.

Sometimes when we are really interested or enthusiastic about something we say that we are “mad” to do it. This “going mad” is also a queer space where we stop being who we were and do what we have never done before.

It takes very little to make us go mad: a body, desire, to imagine how, what, when, and also a little bit of listening. To go out onto the streets together and run, run like mad. Go mad at school, in class, in the museum. Mad with joy, with pleasure, with longing to have a good time. Going mad so as not to end up mad.

A two-session workshop using action and performance to think from a queer perspective about ways of being that are beyond binary categories and fixed definitions of identity.

Final cycle of secondary school.

Schedule: the first 2-hour session to be arranged with the school. The second session from 11:00 to 13:30 at CA2M.

Maximum number of students: 30.

In this workshop the groups will work with art’s capacity to transform time and space. Over the course of the various sessions the class will be turned into a room and the museum into a house. The students will turn off the lights, remove the desks and dance. They will visit the most intimate corners of the museum and together they will build a shelter.

Last year, the performing artist Aitana Cordero designed this workshop in which we will discover how hard it is to work with intimacy in secondary schools and, at once, just how important it is to do so.

Times: the first two two-hour sessions at school and the third open-ended session at CA2M to be agreed with the teacher.

Maximum number of students: 30.

Art. Education. Pedagogy. Learning. Unlearning. Critical exercise. Political imagination. Wet knowledge. Visionary fictions. Counter-pedagogies. The one thing that we cannot deny, or escape, is that we are contemporaries of our pedagogic processes. And pedagogy, understood as a model, is at once a project for the privatisation of thinking. There are still words that are battlegrounds, and these, more than associated with reason, speak from bodies. Inappropriate, untimely, improper, inconvenient, displaced and angry, they dwell in unease and malaise and are like flows that leak out of all pores.

In this workshop Mônica Hoff, through experimental games, actions and readings, invites us to dwell in the unease we feel with our pedagogic processes and perhaps from there we can boost our individual and collective potential for political and poetic action.
