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.

Joaquín García Martín – Autor/a en A*Desk

Joaquín García Martín, born in Madrid, the city where he still lives and where he did his higher education, has collaborated in management tasks with a large number of local institutions dedicated to contemporary art in. After years of managing someone else’s gallery, he decided to open his own gallery in spite of everything. For 8 years, he made it the place where he gave rise to the artistic practices he believed in until reality and the pandemic forced him to be more realistic. Recently, he has decided to channel his professional practice through writing and curating. In both sectors he advocates research and dissemination of the other realities existing beyond the hegemonic centres of thought, economy, visibility and ways of doing.
