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 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.

Matar el tiempo

No nos gusta celebrar la Navidad, pero sí que hasta ahora, y coincidiendo con el cambio de año, nos gusta hacer algunos jueguecitos. Hace un par de Navidades nos dedicamos a preguntar qué
había sido lo mejor y lo peor del año. El pasado Año Nuevo propusimos una serie de posibilidades en broma (“Y si…”). Este año, con los Reyes Magos, traemos unos pasatiempos. Son tres juegos que esperamos que os ayuden a pasar el rato. Al fin y al cabo es a lo que nos dedicamos: a pasar el rato. ¿Qué otra cosa si no es pensar? De eso está hecho el pensamiento, de matar el tiempo. Poco más nos queda en tiempos de crisis. Y no es poco. A ver si lo
que nos va a traer esta crisis es un poco más de espacio para pensar. Pero, ¡eh!, ¡qué nadie se asuste! No es más que un juego. Y sobre todo, no perdamos el sentido del humor.

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.
