External Programming

TBA21 takes part in MiraLookBooks 2026 with a presentation of the publication accompanying CAUTÍN, Seba Calfuqueo’s exhibition at the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza. Led by the exhibition’s curator, Marina Avia, the event will take place at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid as part of this international festival dedicated to publications specializing in contemporary culture.

 

TBA21 brings a selection of publications to MiraLookBooks that invites readers to explore the artistic practices and research supported by the Foundation through titles such as The Commissions Book, which traces two decades of artist commissions, and books dedicated to projects by Joan Jonas, Allan Sekula and Walid Raad, among other artists. Alongside these publications, works such as Oceans Rising, Remedios / Ecologías de la Paz or Palestine is Everywhere extend the conversation to ocean ecologies and the relationships between art and social justice, offering different perspectives on how we inhabit the world and build a culture of peace and solidarity.
