CIUDAD SUR 2024-2025
Ciudad Sur es un espacio de experimentación compartida en el que, tomando Móstoles como punto de partida, queremos indagar en las muchas caras y las muchas riquezas que generan sentimiento de pertenencia en las ciudades de la corona metropolitana de Madrid. Ciudad porque reivindicamos este estatus, en toda la profundidad del término, para lugares que otros rebajan a un almacén de mano de obra. Sur porque vamos a equilibrar la balanza y trenzar un relato que arrebate a Madrid Centro el monopolio de lo innovador, de lo significativo, de lo interesante.
El Museo Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo pone en marcha el grupo de estudio e investigación sobre “Arte y reclusión”. Este grupo de trabajo nace con la intención de investigar desde el arte los marcos relacionados con la reclusión, atendiendo por un lado a la salud mental y la psiquiatría, por otro a todo lo que atañe a la creación bajo circunstancias de exclusión social.
Previous Thinking
Through this announcement, we want to invite you to the project presentation, where we’ll share the results of the inquiry conducted by AMECUM, which started with an invitation from the CA2M Museum to conduct visits to the exhibitions. Thus, we wanted to engage in an open act/performance/ritual to freeze time and record the fleeting footprints of our mediations, which still exist as living spectres.
Ciudad Sur is a shared experimental space begun in 2021 which, taking its starting point in Móstoles, wishes to explore the many faces and manifold riches that generate a sense of belonging in the cities within the metropolitan area of Madrid. Its second edition is called Brota invisible (Invisible Flow).
MCA2M announces an open call for the submission of research projects to be presented at the 27th Image Symposium, whose theme is club culture: club culture as the act and practice of expanding the field of given representations of subjectivity, of producing fictions of somatic permanence, fluctuations in desire, possibilities of dissidence towards the social distribution or other relationships between the body and temporality.
The Research, Data, Documentation, Enquiring and Causation Department (DIDDCC) is a temporary and intermittent structure, directed by Sergio Rubira, that constitutes a space for the study and collaborative research of the museum institution and what it means to call the CA2M by that name
"There are other worlds, but they are in this one”. We wish to apply this sentence by the surrealist poet Paul Eluard to our neighbourhoods, to our towns and cities, to our everyday surroundings. Which is why we claim that “There are other Móstoles, but they are in this one”.
Even if we wanted to, we cannot kill our dead. The dead have summoned us to undertake certain tasks, and so we carry them around with us in our lives every day, in little gestures and flashes of very intense sensations. How can we share these losses, the part of them that has stuck to us, their strange temporalities, the hankering to bury our heart, the pain of Blue — the uncertain stumbling Buzz —?
