 * Residencies: The Residency is created to target a particular and current problem of Buenos Aires’ artistic scene, which is associated artists and cultural agents’ movility within the regional field. It rises from the importance we give to real and constant interaction between kindred spirited projects, since nothing is more effective than making the most out of the moments in which we can share ideas, talk about our concerns and getting to know each other while working in a community.

 * Jornadas de Arte Contemporáneo Latinoamericano: The Jornadas de Arte Contemporáneo Latinoamericano aim to advance the exchange of ideas and debate on current issues in Argentine and Latin American Art. The event attempts to support researchers doing theoretical work on recent art history and current art. Its call for papers is open and it is geared towards students, educators and artists. During the six-hour seminars, which are usually held in November, researchers deliver papers to the public, facilitating debate and exchange of ideas.


 * Expanded Influence Department: The Expanded Influence Department of the Nuevo Museo Energía de Arte Contemporáneo was created in 2015 to replace its Education Department, which operated between 2010 and 2015. Its main objective is to delve into the educational role through and internal restructuring process that allows a more substantial approach to the audience. The title of this department was created by Walter Zanini during his tenure at the Museu de Arte Contemporânea da Universidade de São Paulo between 1963 and 1978. The purpose of this shift is that the museum ceases to be a “visitable space” to become a “visitant space”, that it gets past the barrier of its own walls.

Since 2010 La Ene has carried out workshops, courses, conferences and symposia. During this new phase the goal is to create a space dedicated to publications, to work in relation to other areas of the educational sphere and to rethink the reach of the museum beyond its physical space.


 * Branches: The Branches (Sucursales) are the way in which the Collection and the Museum itself travel and set base in different latitudes. It is characterized by the incorporation of elements of translation particular to the place where the Branch is set up and its capacity to choose projects that have the ability to initiate a dialogue with the new space it occupies. With special interest in producing the same meanings that La Ene establishes in its place of origin, the Branch also transfers aspects related to our Expanded Influence Department and Residency. The Branches can be organized in any type of space, its nature, much like the Collection’s, is adaptability.

Mission
La Ene sets out to act in the realm of contemporary art and to think its institutions in a critical and reflective manner, examine its old configurations, confronting its difficulties and expressing the tension with independent practices. La Ene is a political institution without proselytizing, it is an expansive museum in constant transformation. La Ene promotes the work of argentine and international artists, inciting experimentation, radical thinking and cooperation. La Ene is also a platform for exchange which aims at delving into the knowledge of the complex plexus that shapes the contemporary world.

Collection
La Ene’s Collection exists in a digital memory as an amorphous and constantly changing group of works, works that can be reactivated as often as necessary. La Ene’s Collection can be transported on a memory stick, a hard drive, a piece of paper, or in a person’s mind.
