“Our task today is reintegration, not the generalized power of the scream but the painstaking survey of the land.” – Édouard Glissant   During Autumn and Winter 2013 the lot located in front of the Depósito de Especies in Matadero Madrid hosts a series of debates and public presentations based on agroecological intervention in artistic processes with a new approach to the rural, in which, Campo Adentro, seeks to nurture a theoretical body and production of thought with which to guide further actions. Campo Adentro, through its Study Group on the Ecology of the System of Art, New Landscapes and Contemporary Cultural Territory that are promoted in Matadero Madrid’s Area of Thought, plans to do research on the potential and limits of a space of ruralisation in the city and on its transition towards sustainability. It is a series of sessions in which practical workshops are combined with presentations from international experts and local stakeholders.   Special guests in October are Landings formed by Natasha Ginwala (curator at the Berlin Biennial 2014) and Vivian Ziherl (curator of If I Can’t Dance Its Not My Revolution and also at the Witte de With art centre).   UPCOMING DATES:   On October 18th, seed workshops.   On November: 15th at 16 h  Rastros en la nieve (Tracks in the snow) debate about the indigenous Sampi culture, in Artic Eurasia with Åsa Sonjasdotter and Matti Aikio from the Lapp Academy of art, Tromso, Norway.
