Art Madrid'26 – ARTE A UN CLICK, MEDIA PARTNER OF ART MADRID'18

Arte a un Click is a magazine, a platform for contemporary art and a catalyst for culture. It is also a fantastic team of committed professionals and for Art Madrid'18 it is a luxury to collaborate with them.

Arte a un click

Its main objective, as a communication platform of contemporary art, is to bring art to the general public, but, at the same time, they offer personalized and professional services for art fairs, artists, galleries and art centers.

Arte a un click

Arte a un Click activity focuses on fairs, festivals and exhibitions, although the web offers a wide variety of content. Interviews with gallerists, emerging and consecrated artists, directors of projects, combine with exhibition reviews, agenda... Always from a professional perspective marked by the search for understanding, approach and passion for art. José Luis Calleja Isla, deputy director of the space, explains that: "we want that the contents we offer reach the public in a fresh and sincere way, because our contents are not only curated but collected with art in mind and, above all, with the creators, authentic protagonists of our space."

Attentive to fairs and festivals, centers of sponsorship, exhibition and knowledge of all the novelties in the art of the moment and aware of the need for the collector and, therefore, the sale as a plausible and desirable option, another of their business branches it is the organization of exhibition projects for those fairs, such as those developed for Jäälphoto, ArtNitCampos, Room Art Fair, MARTE, Art & Breakfast, Art Photo Bcn and Cultur3 Club.

In 2017 its services have increased and they have specialized in online content, more adapted to the audience of the digital world. "The diffusion in social networks is nowadays a great challenge, the changes are vertiginous and continuous, and we can not pretend that the creator, the gallery owner or the curator is dedicated to follow those changes. For example, before twitter was a network that generated a huge movement, now, if you do not have a target audience very, very focused on what you offer, the scope is scarce. Facebook is still the most important network, although it may seem that Instagram is now the most influential network, we must bear in mind that these are different audiences. While the first one searches more personalized content, the second is aimed primarily at the younger generations. It is therefore necessary to define very well the market niche and decide which platform works best. Everything is tremendously fast, that is why it is so important that our networks are composed by a stable and faithful public that allows us to get quality content," explains Mercedes Palaín, responsible for RRSS in Arte a un Click.

"The starting point to establish a work strategy for a specific client is the detailed study of what he wants to offer to the public, it is not the same to promote an emerging artist in networks than to support the work of a gallery that has been open for years. We need to study in detail what he has done to spread his space or his work in order to be able to offer the resources that produce the most with the least possible investment, which is what everyone is looking for, "adds Mila Abadía, director of the platform .

Among its clients, in addition to Art Madrid, stand out MARTE, International Fair of Contemporary Art of Castellón, the gallery of Santiago de Compostela OlaLAB Cultural Action and the gallery of Barcelona Art Deal Project. "Writing about spaces and fairs of such interest is always a challenge, expressing what you feel and doing it trying to get the reader to penetrate what you are perceiving is a unique experience," explains Ana Gr Yñañez, journalist in Arte a un Click.

Mujeres Mirando Mujeres

One of the main and most recent projects of Arte a un Click, for the quality and the wide recognition obtained, is "Mujeres Mirando Mujeres", which celebrates its fourth edition. This online initiative claims the preponderant role of women in the artistic field and, year after year, thanks to the commitment of its participants, it is more and more relevant in the social debate about Art and Gender.

The project was based on the individual invitation to different agents of art, but now they have opened the call and its platform of visibility to all those cultural agents who want to apply to participate and join one of its formats: PRESENTATIONS of artists made by curators, galleries, directors of art fairs, managers of cultural spaces, museologists, or theoreticians. INTERVIEWS of artists made by bloggers or specialized journalists, and INVITED PROJECTS. Initiatives managed or curated by art managers, always oriented to implement actions of a collective that supports artists. They publish the articles daily starting on March 8, International Women's Day.

In this edition they extend the project with the collective exhibition "The power of the presence" (Est_Art Space, Alcobendas, Madrid, from 16 of March to the 15 of May), with artists of the three first editions. "With the exhibition we want to highlight the fact that the empowerment of women in all areas of life goes through presence, being and doing. We seek that the artists reflect on the positioning of women in the art world and the questioning of commons themes in which the women have been relegated. We seek works that change the discourse of dominance, narratives with a liberating perspective for women in art, also artists as transforming agents of reality", explains Adriana Pazos Ottón, artist, curator and part of the Arte a un Click.


The circle as critical device and the marker as contemporary catalyst


POSCA, the Japanese brand of water-based paint markers, has established itself since the 1980s as a central instrument within contemporary artistic practices associated with urban art, illustration, graphic design, and interdisciplinary experimentation. Its opaque, highly pigmented, fast-drying formula—compatible with surfaces as diverse as paper, wood, metal, glass, and textiles—has enabled a technical expansion that extends beyond the traditional studio, engaging public space, objects, and installation practices alike.



In this context, POSCA operates as more than a working tool; it functions as a material infrastructure for contemporary creation. It is a technical device that enables immediacy of gesture without sacrificing chromatic density or formal precision. Its versatility has contributed to the democratization of languages historically associated with painting, fostering a more horizontal circulation between professional and amateur practices.

This expanded dimension of the medium finds a particularly compelling conceptual framework in The Rolling Collection, a traveling exhibition curated by ADDA Gallery. The project proposes a collective investigation of the circular format, understood not merely as a formal container but as a symbolic structure and a field of spatial tension.



Historically, the circle has operated as a figure of totality, continuity, and return. Within the framework of The Rolling Collection, the circular format shifts away from its classical symbolic charge toward an experimental dimension, becoming a support that challenges the hegemonic rectangular frontality of the Western pictorial tradition. The absence of angles demands a reconsideration of composition, balance, and directional flow.

Rather than functioning as a simple formal constraint, this condition generates a specific economy of visual decisions. The curved edge intensifies the relationship between center and periphery, dissolves internal hierarchies, and activates both centrifugal and centripetal dynamics. The resulting body of work interrogates the very processes through which images are constructed.



Following its 2025 tour through Barcelona, Ibiza, Paris, London, and Tokyo, a selection of the exhibition is presented at Art Madrid, reinforcing its international scope and its adaptability to diverse cultural contexts. The proposal for Art Madrid’26 brings together artists whose practices unfold at the intersection of urban art, contemporary illustration, and hybrid methodologies: Honet, Yu Maeda, Nicolas Villamizar, Fafi, Yoshi, and Cachetejack.

While their visual languages vary—ranging from graphic and narrative approaches to chromatic explorations charged with gestural intensity—the curatorial framework establishes a shared axis: a free, experimental, and distinctly color-driven attitude. In this sense, color functions as a conceptual structure that articulates the works while simultaneously connecting them to the specific materiality of POSCA.



The marker’s inherent chromatic vibrancy engages in dialogue with the formal assertiveness of the circle, generating surfaces in which saturation and contrast take center stage. The tool thus becomes embedded within the exhibition discourse, operating as a coherent extension of the participating artists’ aesthetic vocabularies.

One of the project’s most significant dimensions is the active incorporation of the public. Within the exhibition space—activated by POSCA during Art Madrid’26—visitors will be invited to intervene on circular supports installed on the wall using POSCA markers, thereby symbolically integrating themselves into The Rolling Collection during its presentation in Madrid.



This strategy introduces a relational dimension that destabilizes the notion of the closed artwork. Authorship becomes decentralized, and the exhibition space transforms into a dynamic surface for the accumulation of gestures. From a theoretical standpoint, the project may be understood as aligning with participatory practices that, without compromising formal coherence, open the artistic dispositif to contingency and multiplicity.

The selection of POSCA as the instrument for this collective intervention is deliberate. Its ease of use, line control, and compatibility with multiple surfaces ensure an accessible experience without diminishing the visual potency of the outcome. In this way, the marker operates as a mediator between professional practice and spontaneous experimentation, dissolving technical hierarchies.



The title itself, The Rolling Collection, suggests a collection in motion—unfixed to a single space or definitive configuration. Its itinerant nature, combined with the incorporation of local interventions, transforms the project into an organism in continuous evolution. Within this framework, POSCA positions itself as a material catalyst for a transnational creative community. Long associated with urban scenes and emerging practices, the brand reinforces its identity as an ally of open, experimental, and collaborative processes.

POSCA x The Rolling Collection should not be understood merely as a collaboration between a company and a curatorial initiative; rather, it constitutes a strategic convergence of tool, discourse, and community. The project proposes a reflection on format, the global circulation of contemporary art, and the expansion of authorship, while POSCA provides the technical infrastructure that makes both individual works and collective experience possible.
