Museum of Contemporary Art Helga de Alvear

Our library holds an outstanding bibliographic collection of national and international contemporary art. In addition, it is a meeting and interaction place for people where we share experiences with our community. In this relational and interdisciplinary library our visitors and researchers are the main characters.

We have a reading club where we discuss and share valuable knowledge about books. For now, the sessions are offered in Spanish.

The cycle Image (With) Text connects the Library with the Helga de Alvear Collection through a series of exhibitions that reveal collections characterised by being a meeting place between disciplines, editions in which word and image come together. The connections between the two will range from more traditional publications, books where the image accompanies the text as illustration, to those more daring ones, which place one of their main values in the tension between the two domains and in the contribution to erasing the frontiers that separate them.
