Apologies, but no events were found.
Festival de Rechazados
Should an artist know how to make PDFs? What’s a sealed bid? What call should call jurors apply to? How many synopses should one write per project? How does one get over the nth rejection? Cheaper than psychoanalysis or a bottle of Jameson’s, Yo sé perder is a fest of rejected artistic proposals. Inspired by the library thought up by US writer Richard Brautigan – star of our flyer – for the keeping of discarded manuscripts, we’ve created this cycle where we will host a selection of guests, each presenting a piece of work that received in reply two joined letters bluntly spelling out the word ‘no’. They’re coming for us!

Between them, they’ve collected quite a few rejections.
