As part of its training-related activities, the Fundación María Cristina Masaveu Peterson created this free programme with the prime goal of meeting the needs of students from preschool to baccalaureate via different kinds of tours.

 In October 2021 the FMCMP opened a new space devoted to street art in its Madrid headquarters where the Foundation’s latest acquisitions and new commissions are displayed in rotation. They span the variety of disciplines and freedom of formats characteristic of this new art trend.

As they walk round, visitors will discover works by internationally renowned artists such as Banksy, Keith Haring, Yayoi Kusama, and Kaï, alongside pieces by well-established or emerging Spanish artists such as Marria Pratts, Ela Fidalgo, Marina Tellme, Luis Pérez Calvo, and Hugo Alonso. Additionally, four projects created under the Foundation’s patronage and specifically designed for this space by Estudio Pedrita, Juan Díaz-Faes, and Queen Andrea are also featured.

PRESCHOOL AND PRIMARY SCHOOL TOUR-WORKSHOP

Little urban artists

This activity, targeted at preschool and primary school children, offers a tour of the Street Art Space and a creative activity. Based on the work of one of the artists in this exhibition, the participants will learn about the different techniques used in urban art, like stencils, collage and tags, as well as the wide variety of materials used, many of them recycled to give them a new life.

Using a methodology based on play and teamwork, the participants will become urban artists for a day with the goal of learning more about art via the works of today.

The tour-workshop lasts approximately 90 minutes and is led by cultural mediators.
