At the Museo de Arte Moderno y Contemporáneo de Santander y Cantabria will hold a new session in the series on Tuesday, 6 October 2026, at 18:30 Encuentros con Artistas . According to the museum, the artists Teresa Moro and Blanca Tejerina will lead the evening; coordination is by Laura Cobo. Admission is free until capacity is reached.
The event is designed as an intergenerational conversation. First, both artists will talk about their careers and current working processes; they will then take part in an open exchange with each other and the audience. The event is part of the city-funded Encuentros con Artistas programme of the Ayuntamiento de Santander and continues the series of conversations bringing together artists from different generations.
Teresa Moro generally focuses on objects and spaces that shape people or are shaped by them. Her work revolves around everyday objects, lived-in interiors and the stories they may hold. In exhibitions and presentations, this exploration has repeatedly been read as a close examination of materiality, memory and use. In this way, she draws on traditions of still-life painting while extending them through a contemporary reflection on the relationship between objects and biography.
Blanca Tejerina focuses on vegetation and landscape, and on how we perceive, depict and alter plants. Drawing, sculpture and material studies are her main tools. Observations of her immediate surroundings – including in Santander and in Cantabria – often serve as a starting point for making natural forms, interventions and transformations visible. The juxtaposition of the two approaches provides a clear basis for discussing the choice of subject matter, working methods and the role of place in the artistic process.
For this session, the museum emphasises the open nature of the encounter: audience discussions are explicitly part of the evening. Visitors are advised to arrive in good time, as seating is limited. Information on the start time, programme and free admission comes from the latest announcement by the Museo de Arte Moderno y Contemporáneo de Santander y Cantabria and the City of Santander’s programme communications. The organisers reserve the right to make changes to details.
