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.

Yaby – Autor/a en A*Desk

Beatriz Ortega Botas and Alberto Vallejo founded Yaby in 2017, an independent art space in Madrid operating until 2022, which programmed readings, performances and group and solo exhibitions by artists such as Caspar Heinemann, Rindon Johnson, Cole Lu, Precious Okoyomon, Nayland Blake, A.K. Burns, Atiéna R. Kilfa, Sitara Abuzar Ghaznawi or Angharad Williams. After the closure of their own space, they continue to work together as an independent curatorial team, and have carried out projects for the Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona), EACC (Castellón), Vleeshal (Midelburg), ARCO (Madrid), La Casa Encendida (Madrid) or Hangar (Barcelona), with artists Kandis Williams, Jota Mombaça, Iki Yos Piña Narváez Funes, P.
