INTERCESSIONS. PERFORMANCE CYCLE X TARA FOR WOMEN



Art Madrid celebrates its 19th edition from March 6 to 10, 2024 at the Galería de Cristal of the Palacio de Cibeles. During the Art Week, Art Madrid becomes an exhibition platform for national and international galleries and artists. With the intention of creating a space of expression for emerging artists, our fair has joined forces with the Tara For Women Foundation, which, in its mission to empower and strengthen talented women, becomes a collaborator of Art Madrid's renewed Parallel Program with the Performance Cycle: Intercessions X Tara For Women.

PERFORMANCE: ARTIST'S BINGO. SARA GEMA DOMINGUEZ


Thursday - March 7 - 19:00h. Galería de Cristal of the Palacio de Cibeles.



Chance is a constant in our life and the context in which an artist is born or develops is essential to determine his position in the market or his mere recognition. The idea of play and the models that revolve around it - as Allan Kaprow proposed - produce a change of roles and the artist then becomes a player.

Satire, humor and criticism about the processes of professionalization of an artist are part of a bingo that invites the public to become potential creative agents by participating in the action.

The winner will receive a diploma certifying that he or she is an artist, thus demonstrating his or her recognition to others.
