Carmen Cantón portrait, Madrid (2009). Ego Art Centre, 1994 - 2009. Exhibition space installed in a white chest of drawers, 270 x 77 x 46 cm. Its original purpose was changed when it was designated a Museum by Pelayo Varela, Carmen Cantón was the museum director, in charge of the curatorship of the first exhibition in 1995. The guiding principles of this centre consisted of flexibility, lightness, travelling and experimentation. Unlike more conventional museum models Ego opted for multiplicity and portability, inhabiting a private space   (the personal is political) and, finally, becoming a commodity. Its travels have taken it to the Venice Biennale, the Küppersmuhle Sammlung Grothe Museum in Duisburg, Germany, Museum of Contemporary Centre Sofia, Venezuela, and other locations in Latin America –Mexico D.F., Oaxaca, Argentina, Santo Domingo, Paraguay, Peru . The interventions on the centre, based on dialogue among the various agents, are documented in the art magazine The Route of the Senses.
