What is Intermediae?




Intermediæ is an institution for Contemporary Creation that is permanently under construction, part of the Arts Area of the Madrid City Council.

The objective of Intermediæ is to investigate and test forms through which definitions are found that project a different model for public institutions in keeping with the context of today. Its work is based on three fundamental ideas: creation as a means of exploration, research and experimentation; process and participation as formulas for development.

Intermediæ has a variety of spaces to suit the activities carried out in them and projects organized as temporary platforms for sharing explorations of common interests and questions.

The Programa de Ayudas a la Creación (Creative Arts Grants Programme) is the main channel open to participation, for the purpose of receiving proposals from individual creators and groups, cultural agents and associations.

Intermediae publishes a notebook titled Borrador (Draft) to explain and update its evolution over time. Borrador #1 and Borrador #2 have already been published and Borrador #3 will soon be available.
