A*DESK, Independent Institute of Criticism and Contemporary Art, has published this autumn its issue number 102 focused on a theme considered crucial in this moments: distribution.
Our aim has been to explore the subject and we have gathered together a series of experiences, examples, case studies and initiatives that explore other forms of distribution. In the collection of experiences compiled into a video format our aim has not been to be exhaustive, but that the selection be representative. We have talked with Nogueras Blanchard, ProjecteSD, The Private Space, Raiña Lupa, etHall, Halfhouse, Homesession and Texto in Barcelona; with Negociosraros, Noestudio and Rampa in Madrid; with Castillo/Corrales and CAC Brétigny in Paris and with Supermarket in Stockholm.
With all of them we have discussed their relationship with other agents involved in the arts, the market and distribution, the need to think about formats, how they communicate and how they use Internet and, last but not least, the role of art.
