A*DESK has been offering since 2002 contents about criticism and contemporary art. A*DESK has become consolidated thanks to all those who have believed in the project, all those who have followed us, debating, participating and collaborating. Many people have collaborated with A*DESK, and continue to do so. Their efforts, knowledge and belief in the project are what make it grow internationally. At A*DESK we have also generated work for over one hundred professionals in culture, from small collaborations with reviews and classes, to more prolonged and intense collaborations.

At A*DESK we believe in the need for free and universal access to culture and knowledge. We want to carry on being independent, remaining open to more ideas and opinions. If you believe in A*DESK, we need your backing to be able to continue. You can now participate in the project by supporting it. You can choose how much you want to contribute to the project.

You can decide how much you want to bring to the project.

Berta Gutiérrez Casaos – Autor/a en A*Desk

Over the last few years, Berta Gutiérrez Casaos has travelled to various cities working at the intersection of design, art, pedagogy and philosophy as a researcher, architect and curator. Now based in Berlin, where she founded the collaborative studio forty-five degrees, she develops international spatial research projects based on materiality and thought. Trained as an architect, she has always tried to question the limits of the disciplinary and to reflect on themes such as the commonplace, informality, the production of space, its scales and its inherent politics. Art and writing have genuinely accompanied her throughout her career and have become an essential part of thinking about spatial practice in other ways. From a multidisciplinary profile, he understands the intersection between arts, science and design as a crucial issue to think some key questions in the current crisis. He has worked in institutions such as TBA21 Thyssen Bornemisza Contemporary Art, Matadero Madrid, or Medialab Prado, and collaborated with KW Institute of Contemporary Art, CCCB in Barcelona, Uversität der Kunste in Berlin, Akademie Schloss Solitude or the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid.
