JUSTMAD is a project of Art Fairs, a Spanish company that promotes art fairs and cultural events. It has organised, since 2009, the fairs MADRIDFOTO (International Photography Fair 4 editions in Madrid), JUSTMADMIA (International Emerging Art Fair of Miami 1 edition), SUMMA (International Contemporary Art Fair 3 editions), JUSTMAD (International Contemporary Art Fair 13 editions) and JUSTLX in Lisbon (International Contemporary Art Fair of Lisbon 3 editions).
JUSTMAD is directed by Óscar García García, independent curator, cultural manager, founder of PAC Plataforma de Arte Contemporáneo and author of the book Dios salve el arte contemporáneo for Grupo Planeta.
JUSTMAD continues its commitment to ecology, the rural world and emerging art with its annual residency program in collaboration with Ras de Terra. The three winning artists, Pilar del Puerto (Beatriz Pereira Gallery), Manuel García Cruz (Navel Art) and Almaro (Modus Operandi Gallery), will reside from January 23 to February 3 at the Ras de Terra residence in Villanueva de la Vera (Cáceres), to develop a project together under the creative direction of the artist Mónica Sánchez-Robles, co-founder of Ras de Terra. This year the universe of merino wool and its current problems from contemporary art will be addressed. Their joint work will be exhibited at the JUSTMAD 2023 fair.
Last edition, the artists awarded with the Ras de Terra JUSTMAD 2022 Residency were Isabel Flores, Tamara García, Natasha Lelenco and Rafael Blanco
The Rucandio Collection is a private initiative promoted since the 1960s with the aim of reconstructing the most important moments in Spanish art from the second half of the 20th century to the present day. The aim of the Collection is to establish an impartial account of this period with representative works by all the fundamental artists who have worked in this period

In its commitment to stimulate a new generation of art, LEA will award a residency prize at JUSTMAD, which will be given to the artist/gallery tandem that presents the work selected as the most vindicative of freedom in creative processes. The prize will consist of a public honourable mention and a full six-month artistic residency grant in Madrid for the author of the work, in the LEA experimentation and community laboratory, a 200m2 space dedicated to the research and creation of new languages and artistic proposals.
RARA Galería y Residencia de Arte is an initiative run by the non-profit cultural association Nueva Rara Avis. It is an organisation that connects and involves artists from all over the world and from any discipline with the local artistic network within a natural and rural environment. Its residency prize is aimed at an Andalusian artist.
Collection of one of the fair's organising companies specialising in photography and a wide representation of Portuguese artists.
Collection driven by a very young collector, who follows in her mother's footsteps by collecting works by women artists.
LEGOMETRY
Elisa Miravalles
The piece is composed of a structure of boxes, balance and movement. Elisa Miravalles works on the construction, transformation and deconstruction of irregular shapes that articulate her body and the surrounding space.
ORACLE
Alba Soto
Stop. Breathe. Connect with me, with you. Just let yourself do it. Trust. Listen to my hands, your hands, my voice and look into my eyes. Come in, don't pass over, awaken to intuition. Your questions are channelled through me. ARTcanos speak. (...)
THE SINGING SCULPTURE (SINGS THE 40)
David Trullo
It recovers Gilbert & George's famous first performance "The Singing Sculpture", first presented in 1969. Halfway between homage and parody, performative conference and vaudeville, Trullo will carry out an 'adapted' version of the performance in the context of an art fair, focusing on aspects already present in the original action (the democratisation of art, the entertainment industry) and other current issues such as the precariousness of the artist and his role in contemporary society.
ZAHAR
Martín Tolosa Marin
This work stems from a reflection on old age -ZAHAR in Basque, his mother tongue-. He uses a methacrylate bathtub that represents the world in which we live, claustrophobic, detached and transparent to the observer's gaze. His body inside it, as an instrument to give voice to the suffering of being forgotten, helpless as if he were a stranger.
