Live music in IVAM
In collaboration with Culturarts Music, musicians of the Youth Orchestra of the Generalitat Valenciana perform works by valencian contemporary composers and revisions of parts of classical composers.
Celebrating the International Dance Day in colaboration with the Conservatory of Dance of Valencia interpret the show “Ballar en Mig” in the forecourt, the hall and galleries 1 and 2 of IVAM.
Far from attempting to deplete the profuse variety of themes, styles, authors and gestures that avant-garde cinema produced in the first three decades of its existence, this series aspires to touch, in four sessions with commentaries and explanations, on some of the themes that for the public of the time and in the eyes of our current conception are both historic and cutting edge, comprehensible and promising. In other words, why this period of avant-garde movies dating back between seventy and hundred years can be a source of knowledge and stimulus for our artistic, ethical and political preoccupations, since some of the questions posed back then (perhaps in aggressive form) are still the same today.

The artist Christian Boltanski awarded
Christian Boltanski|Le Reserve des Suisses Morts, 1991
Christian Boltanski (Paris, 1944) is receiving the International Prize Julio González of the Generalitat Valenciana, edition 2014.

In previous twelve editions this award was received by Georg Baselitz, Cy Twombly, Eduardo Chillida, Anish Kapoor, Markus Lüpertz, Robert Rauschenberg, Anthony Caro, Miquel Navarro, Pierre Soulages, Frank Stella, Robert Morris and Bernar Venet.
Memory, loss and death are the cornerstones of the work of Christian Boltanki, obsessed by the major issues related to human existence, such as the disappearance, forgetfulness, chance of living and the trail left by any life after ceasing to exist. La Réserve des Suisses Morts, 1991, one of his most significant works, is part of the IVAM Collection.
