2008. DISCUSSION PANELS PROGRAMME

Place: La Casa Encendida (Ronda de Valencia No. 2, Madrid)Date: 7th and 8th FebruaryTime: From 17.00 to 21.00 h.

Continuing the practice established in the last editions, this year the debate tables are organised once again in collaboration with La Casa Encendida.  As in previous editions, on the one hand, the debate tables will present the projects produced for Madrid Abierto and, on the other, they will introduce different initiatives developed within the sphere of art in the public space.

The round tables will include the active participation of the commission set up last year to debate the model of Madrid Abierto.  The commission's co-ordinator, Rocío Gracia, and its members, Cecilia Anderson, Guillaume Désanges, Jorge Díez, Ramón Parramon, María Inés Rodríguez and Fito Rodríguez, together with this edition's organisers, the collective DEMOCRACIA.

For the artists’ presentations, the event's organisers have established three groups, although aware that the groups may be pervious and that one same project may meet several of the established premises. On the one hand, we will have the projects that make the contemporary class conflict visible, as well as a temporary suspension of the exclusions generated by this conflict, on another hand, those that employ elements or the propagandistic language of the urban scene, and lastly, those more closely associated with forms of urban culture.

The artistic experience developed in the public space faces the complex task of intervening in a saturated and hyper-aesthetized space with few fissures. The temporary and ephemeral nature of these artistic practices often places obstacles in the way of the dissemination and development possibilities of many interesting proposals that would require more time, with respect to the prior investigation and the subsequent production of the interventions as well as the desirable convergence with other projects and other social and cultural agents. In light of this, the opening of new spaces is needed to encourage other forms of production and dissemination, as well as the creation of networks of information and collaboration between this kind of artistic practices. For this reason, every year Madrid Abierto aims to give exposure to other similar experiences. In this edition, Nelson Brissac and Vit Havranek will be responsible for presenting invited projects, offering their experience in the debate on the strategies applied to the city and the territory from an artistic perspective, with more or less emphasis on experimentation, multi-discipline, the process and interaction with the public.

2008. Dier + Noaz. ESTADO DE EXCEPCIÓN (published text)

 Throughout Europe and the rest of the world, the most conservative political tendencies are re-emerging as part of an attempt to provide answers to a complex world through increasingly simple solutions.

According to the European Forum For Urban Safety, Spain is the European country with more police officers per inhabitant, with 486 for every 100.000 inhabitants. Spain also has the highest rate of prison inmates in Europe, 140 for every 100.000 inhabitants, according to the General Directorate for Penitentiary Institutions (June 2006).

Although the crime figures have not experienced a relevant increase, we are constantly faced with news of local authorities demanding tougher sanctions and more police officers. This request is a constant factor in Madrid, no doubt, to respond to an increasingly frightened society.

To what extent can security and fear be transmitted at the same time? The Paseo de Recoletos is a perfect place to reflect on this, given that, as a result of tourism, it is one of the safest places in Madrid.

We seek to generate a sensation of a maximum security response against an unknown threat by installing a (fake) military check point with signs warning people to be on the alert.

We hope that this initiative will encourage the public, regardless of their political ideology, to reflect on the deterioration that our environment may suffer as a result of an escalation of violence and security.

Small ParkThe sandy floor would be proper, we would have more space. Not very visible.

Small Square in front of the MuseumVisible from moving cars. The floor is not too good. A little isolated

2008. Dier + Noaz. ESTADO DE EXCEPCIÓN (technical data)

The platform will be installed in front of the Fountain of Apollo.

In the grey plan you can see a pink mark that signals the area we would occupy, always centred. The direction of the ladder of the tower would go on one or other direction depending on its closeness to el Paseo of el Prado. (A-B).

The spotlights should illuminate an area of 360º around the tower. C

The warning sign would be facing the fountain. On the other three sides we would paint army identification signs or belonging to a private surveillance company.

If the budget isn’t enough we could use metallic tripods to prevent cars from driving into the tower. The tripods would be two, three or four.
