Nadie, Nunca, Nada, No was born in the studio of Ramón Mateos, and has gradually opened its doors to host workshops, presentations, actions, exhibitions, and other activities and events centered around contemporary creation. The program is curated by the artist himself, in collaboration with Sandra Hernández.
Nadie Nunca Nada No is what is known in Anglo-Saxon terms as a non-profit artist-run space—that is, a space run by artists for artists, not necessarily focused on the art market, but on experimentation, production, and dissemination of contemporary art. Today, we define it as a self-organized artist-led project.

Vallès: Fabricating Pasts, Fabricating Futures is a project composed of video installations, lectures, and workshops that explore the proletarian historical memory of the Vallès region.
2024 arrives full of moving images with a new edition of the PROYECTOR Festival: New Hertzog Da Silva Awards, 2nd Edition of VERTICAL <25
The PROYECTOR platform showcases and distributes the most experimental and cutting-edge proposals on the international scene. The Festival is known for its non-cinemanormative works—pieces that fall outside traditional approaches, engaging with the space and the active viewer who experiences them.
From September 11 to 22, 2024, 33 venues across the city of Madrid will converge to present new languages and formats through around 100 works of expanded cinema, performance, video art, site-specific and interactive pieces, and unique works premiering at the Festival.
PROYECTOR collaborates with both independent and established spaces, spanning from central neighborhoods to surrounding districts of the capital. These venues are filled with video art proposals curated by the PROYECTOR platform as well as by the galleries and museums participating in the OFF Circuit, each presenting their own programming and resources.
Additionally, PROYECTOR partners with festivals specializing in experimental video art and moving image, such as Loops.Expanded, Muestra Internacional de Videonarración A/R/Tográfica, FIVA, PLAY or Fonlad, Mostra Brasilenha Pioneiras da Videoarte.
But there’s more!
In its 17th edition, the Hertzog Da Silva Awards return! Up to five awards will be awarded to selected works through a public call, judged by this edition’s jury. Each year, the jury features international professionals specializing in experimental video art. This year’s jury includes artist and curator Andrés Denegri (Argentina), curator Marcela Andino (Argentina), and last year’s award-winning artists Amaya Hernández Sigüenza (Spain) and Ting Tong Chang (Taiwan).
Thanks to Hertzog Da Silva, we are launching for the second year the call for young creators who think vertically: VERTICAL <25. With a new public voting system via social media, you can help choose the winner of a production residency in 2025!
PROYECTOR continues to support Madrid’s contemporary art scene by collaborating with the Platform of Independent Contemporary Creation Spaces, which this year includes 16 new venues and, for the first time, opens the doors of artists’ studios. The festival also promotes equality and the internationalization of a free and accessible culture. As such, each year over half of the works presented are by women artists from up to 30 different countries, and all festival activities are free of charge.
Additionally, all events—openings, talks, performances, and workshops—will be streamed online (YouTube, Vimeo) to ensure international accessibility.
The platform collaborates with universities, offering new generations the opportunity to train and integrate into the cultural sector. We thank the associations, galleries, foundations, private companies, embassies, venues, and above all, the artists who make it all possible.
