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.

Show must go on

No damos abasto a recoger todas las novedades y anuncios. La fiebre de concursos está abierta. Los resueltos: CGAC y MUSAC. Y los abiertos: Canòdrom y Hangar. Sin embargo, hay que seguir vigilantes. Una de cal y otra de arena. No despistarnos ante el inicio concursante de la temporada y estar atento ante nuevas interferencias como la que afecta ahora a la sala Rekalde de Bilbao. Y todo ello no debe hacernos olvidar el debate. El debate sobre arte, prácticas artísticas o prácticas culturales. Las cuestiones infraestructurales, administrativas y de gestión no pueden ocupar el espacio de la reflexión y los contenidos. De momento, en este nuevo número de la revista de a-desk proponemos una reflexión sobre el comisariado de la mano de Manuela Moscoso; Javier Hontoria repasa la exposición de David Maljkovic en el MNCARS; Roberto Enríquez se ocupa de la exposición Familiar Feelings en el CGAC; y Claudio Iglesias revisa los años noventa en Argentina a través de la exposición conmemorativa sobre el CC. Rojas de Buenos Aires. Mientras, seguimos trabajando…

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.
