a3bandas 2014 - Madrid and Barcelona

a3bandas celebrates its fourth edition in Madrid and Barcelona between April 3th and May 24th.

Each year, a3bandas invites contemporary art galleries of Madrid and Barcelona, to include an exhibition proposal designed by an independent curator in their costumary schedule during April and May. The exhibition, collective or individual, not necessarily showing artists represented by the gallery, ad hoc and unprecedented, always ensures the interests of all parties involved.

22 galleries in Madrid and 6 galleries in Barcelona participate in the fourth consecutive edition of a3bandas. The opening will take place in Barcelona on Thursday, April 3th from 17 to 21 hours; the opening in Madrid will be on Saturday April 5, whose participating galleries will keep their doors open from noon to 20:30.

More activities, more participation

One of the main objectives of a3bandas is to enhance visibility of the labour of galleries, curators and artists for a general public. For this reason, we have designed a rich side-program of activities. Among others, there will be Guided tours for the general public on Fridays and Saturdays (tours last for an hour and a half). It is a free activity, but you must reserve by the online registration form.

Additionally, a3bandas and Absolut launch again an Audience Award determined by popular ballot votes deposited at the participating galleries in Madrid and Barcelona. Fill out the paper ballot at the galleries and enter the running to start or build upon your art collection.
