This program was born in response to the Museums Day - an established countrywide event which provokes massive audience to visit museums and exhibitions spaces. This phenomenon raises certain questions. For example, does it make culture more accessible or more spectacular? Does it create participants or audience? What needs these events underline? How are the resources managed? Where is the current contemporary art production generated? Prácticas contemporáneas is a symposium created by AADK Spain to question and analyses these variables.
