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.

To interview a character

Some of the characters with whom Dora García works are appearing at the Spanish Pavillion in Venice. Characters, literally. Narrative creations personified. Performance, art, literature and theater come through a working process that requires time, which is not clearly visible and raise questions around trust relationship between artist and viewer.

Marti Manen interviews William Holden, a former Hollywood star, a Martin Kippenberger’s fantasy and an actual character of Dora García.

The interview, at The Inadecuate 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.
