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.

Editorial

La semana del 05 02 07 al 09 02 07 realizamos un primer workshop en La Central, que forma parte de la plataforma de Formación de A-Desk, en la que seguiremos profundizando.
El resultado del workshop superó ampliamente nuestras expectativas: en número de personas interesadas, en el auténtico ambiente de trabajo y de discusión que se generó y, fundamentalmente, por la intensidad con la que se implicaron todos los participantes y el nivel de discusión que generaron.
Resultado de aquella experiencia, dedicamos íntegramente este nuevo número de A-Desk a los textos que los participantes trabajaron allí. Incluido un auténtico editorial que sirve de prólogo a este número y otras aportaciones que nos brindaron nuevos esquemas, formatos y secciones sobre las que seguir trabajando (Apuntes a… o B-DESK). Y, por supuesto, sus críticas, con nuevas miradas y análisis sobre las exposiciones.
Finalmente, una vez inaugurada la plataforma Blog de A-Desk hemos eliminado la sección de Réplicas en cada artículo y delegamos vuestra participación (que agradecemos encarecidamente) al Blog.

A*DESK is a critical platform focused on publishing, training, experimentation, communication and dissemination in relation to contemporary culture and art, which is defined by transversality. The starting point is contemporary art, because that is where we come from and this awareness allows us to go much further, to incorporate other disciplines and forms of thought in order debate issues that are relevant and urgent for understanding our present.
