Once again this year, MACA, Museum of Contemporary Art of Alicante,
launches a new edition of the SUMMER AT MACA 2017 Workshops.
This year with the title L'ÉCOLE DEL MACA
As every July, we propose "summer workshops" inspired by Contemporary Art, with the aim of promoting Creativity and Expressivity, based on a perspective that is at the same time educational and recreational.
Summer at MACA: L'ÉCOLE DEL MACA seeks the development of
imagination and artistic initiative of the participants, as well as the
improvement of communication skills in different forms of
expression. In this way and at the same time, we want to enhance
aesthetic sensitivity and appreciation of artistic manifestations and contemporary cultural heritage.
MACA wants to transform itself into an Artistic Creation Center as Milan, Paris, Berlin and New York were, where different ISMS or artistic movements as important as Cubism, Surrealism, Futurism, Expressionism and a long etcetera were born...
This year participants will be able to form their avant-garde artistic
movement according to their interests, create their own manifesto and
of course their Works of Art.
Do you know what an ISM is? And an artistic manifesto?
Manifesto: a written statement of an artistic movement to express or
defend a program considered revolutionary or innovative with
respect to what is established.
We become avant-garde artists to create, imagine, express and invent a different art.

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.
