Support A*Desk

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.

Timelines

The passing of time is something that worries us. We’re preoccupied by it. By the passing of time, things that happen, events. They are all causes, symptoms, or excuses for a line that doesn’t advance at the same speed, depending on where it’s considered from. This month, which begins faster in some places than in others, we’ll be looking at the lines that cross between the works of many artists and curators that stretch beyond us, towards a community or future yet to be measured. To offer a taste, we leave you here with the piece par excellence about time. Produced by the Venice Biennale in 2011, it has been present in numerous museums and exhibitions since then. Aymara Arreaza talked about it here in 2014. We leave you with a clip to be consumed before 12.04pm. Be on time!

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.
