MACALaboratorium. A fun Experimentation Laboratory in which Art is the vehicle for learning, enjoying and creating. It arises from the need to provide children, after this difficult stage, spaces where they can recover contact with culture, which has proven to be more necessary than ever as a tool to open windows to the world.
MACALaboratorium is a proposal of sensory artistic challenges that took place during the four weeks of July, from the 5th to the 30th; 4 weeks in which a series of experimentations were carried out around a common theme related to the museum's collections and exhibitions
A window to think about nature, about time, about who we are and about the very pleasure of thinking… for all this we use the artworks from the collections and temporary exhibition, which we approach in a playful, exciting and respectful way.
Week 1: July 5-9. MACA LAB 0.1 Colors as raw material, as emotion, as light and darkness… and how they work with artworks.
Week 2: July 12-16. MACA LAB 0.2 Light to transform space. Lights and shadows.
Week 3: July 19-23. MACA LAB 0.3 Everyday artistic languages: advertising, customs and popular heroes.
Week 4: July 26-30. MACA LAB 0.4 The world of geometry.
The museum's Mediation programming, aimed primarily at adult audiences, offers different proposals in various formats whose purpose is to facilitate deep and meaningful access to the contents of permanent collections and temporary exhibitions. From curiosity, reflection and exchange, we generate an active learning environment in which observation, dialogue and experimentation occupy a central place. Mediation is conceived as a bridge between artworks and people, a space where shared interpretations are constructed and critical participation is fostered. Therefore, we offer participatory activities and experiences that adapt to different ages, interests and concerns, understanding that each perspective brings unique value. With this approach, MACA becomes an inclusive and vibrant space where visitors not only enjoy artistic creation, but also reflect on its relevance and impact on contemporary society.
