Within its ten years of existence, along six editions, the international program Madrid Abierto has produced 65 artistic interventions. In its different editions, specific sections on audiovisual and sound-works, discussions panels, presentations and workshops have been made as well. All the documentation materials generated therein compose the Madrid Abierto's archive established in Matadero during 2011, which will be made accessible from January 12th to February 19th within the framework of the exhibition at El Taller, including the artworks by, amongst others, Santiago Sierra, Dan Perjovschi, Laurence Bonvin, Simon Greenan + Christopher Sperandio, Wolfgang Weileder and Raimond Chaves. From January 12th to February 19th it will also take place at El Taller, in Matadero, presentations and discussions with Fernando Llanos, Iñaki Larrimbe, Democracia, Susanne Bosch, Raquel Pelta and Aitor Méndez.

Tuesday to Friday: from 4 pm to 10 pm.; Saturdays, Sundays and holidays: from 11 am to 10 pm.

After establishing Madrid Abierto's archive in Matadero Madrid, available for consultation after previous request (91 517 12 33, archive@mataderomadrid.com), an exhibit has been organized (founded on the archive) which intends to provide a comprehensive view of Madrid Abierto's editions since 2004. We will also present The death of Videoman by Fernando Llanos and Weird tourism by Iñaki Larrimbe and his Unofficial Tourism group, projects which were developed in Madrid Abierto's 2008 and 2010 editions. Artist Susanne Bosch and the Democracy group will discuss useful art. We will also present the Madrid Abierto 2009-2010 publication as well as the recorded conversation of artists Isidoro Valcárcel Medina and Santiago Sierra with Madrid Abierto's director, Jorge Díez. To close the event, Raquel Pelta will speak with Aitor Menéndez about the relationship between graphic design and modern art.
