The exhibition Perseguidos y salvados addresses how over 15,000 Jews escaped during
the World War II through the Pyrenees, the mountains between France and Spain. In it,
two key events that mark this persecution in Nazi Germany are recovered: the Nuremberg
laws of 1935 and the Night of Broken Glass of November 1938. Through the biographies
of some families, photographs and songs, this exhibition explains how they managed to
flee after crossing the Pyrenees heroically, and once they arrived in Spain, seek refuge in
America or the then British Mandate for Palestine.
La muestra Perseguidos y salvados aborda cómo 15.000 judíos escaparon durante la
Segunda Guerra Mundial por los Pirineos entre Francia y España. En ella, se recuperan
dos acontecimientos clave que marcaron dicha persecución en la Alemania nazi: las
leyes de Núremberg de 1935 y la Noche de los Cristales Rotos de noviembre de 1938.
A través de las biografías de algunas familias, fotografías y canciones, esta exposición
explica cómo consiguieron huir tras cruzar de forma heroica los Pirineos, y una vez
llegados a España, buscar refugio en América o en el entonces protectorado británico
de Palestina.

e s i g nr y 2 7 th El placer de matar
a una madre
ma r ta l ó pe z luaces
boo k p r esentation
El placer de matar a una madre (The pleasure of killing a mother) explores the
suffering by women during the Franco regime and is inspired by real events in dif-
ferent psychiatric centers. Under Franco´s dictatorship women who broke apart
from social norms (single mothers, lesbians, women with mental disabilities, even
women who were raped by a family member) were sent to mental institutions
These women were deemed sick. The official discourse was that the regime was
helping them. El placer de matar a una madre revolves around the contradic-
tions of the last years of Franco dictatorship. The plot addresses the mechanisms
used by the Franco regime to control its subjects, while building an intimate sto-
ry and, in line with the resolution of a mystery, proposes an interesting reflection.
The author, Marta López Luaces, will talk with Nuria Morga-
do, a member of the North American Academy of Language and Teach-
er (CUNY) and writer and teacher Rolando Pérez (Hunter College).
El placer de matar a una madre explora la opresión de las mujeres durante el franquismo
y está inspirada en hechos reales ocurridos en distintos centros psiquiátricos. Bajo
la dictadura de Franco, las mujeres que rompían con las normas sociales (madres
solteras, lesbianas, mujeres con discapacidades mentales, incluso mujeres violadas
por un familiar) se recluían en hospitales psiquiátricos. Se consideraba que estas
mujeres estaban enfermas. El discurso oficial declaraba que las estaban ayudando.
El placer de matar a una madre gira en torno a las contradicciones de esa España
que vive los últimos coletazos del franquismo. La trama aborda los mecanismos que
utilizaba el poder para controlar a sus súbditos, al tiempo que construye una historia
íntima y, al hilo de la resolución de un misterio, propone una interesante reflexión.
La autora, Marta López Luaces, conversará con Nuria Morgado, miembro de
la Academia Norteamericana de la Lengua y profesora (CUNY) y con el profesor y
escritor Rolando Pérez (Hunter College).

The legend of an ancient and forgotten civilization lies buried under a large expanse of
dunes. For more than a century, a number of travelers have reached this remote and
desolate territory looking for the traces of ancient inhabitants, the ruins of a city, or
perhaps a sort of lost utopia.
Ignorant of these myths and the romantic delusions of archaeologists and adventurers,
a few men, barely visible among the sands, today inhabit in solitude that place facing
the sea.
Year: 2017|Running time: 93 minutes|Original version: Spanish
La leyenda de una antigua y olvidada civilización yace enterrada bajo grandes
extensiones de dunas. Desde hace algo más de un siglo varios viajeros han llegado hasta
ese recóndito territorio buscando las huellas de antiguos pobladores, tal vez los restos
de una ciudad sepultada por las arenas, o acaso una suerte de utopía extraviada.
Ignorantes de esos mitos y de las ilusiones románticas de arqueólogos y aventureros,
unos pocos hombres, apenas visibles entre los arenales, habitan hoy en soledad ese
lugar frente al mar.

g n 1 1 th The transformative
power of women,
leading the necessa r y ecological
t r ansition towa r ds a sustainable
business model
The climate change observed by our scientists pleads for a change in the current produc-
tion model to avoid irreversible damage to the environment. As women, we are particularly
aware of the problem as we are greatly affected by the effects of climate change. However,
we remain underrepresented in senior positions within companies, governments and or-
ganizations, where measures are being discussed to avoid reaching a point of no return.
Women’s leadership can redirect economic policies towards socially just and sustainable
models that streamline the use of natural resources and reduce the impact of human ac-
tivity on the environment. Women are a decisive force in the design of a new energy model
that makes progress compatible with a respectful attitude towards the planet. A broad and
in-depth debate is in dire need, leading with issues as energy and employment, where all
social agents are committed to reach goals that establish a major ecological transition.
El cambio climático que constatan nuestros científicos urge a cambiar el actual modelo pro-
ductivo para evitar daños irreversibles en el medio ambiente. Aunque las mujeres estamos
especialmente afectadas por los efectos del cambio climático y concienciadas del problema,
estamos infra representadas en los puestos de responsabilidad de las empresas, gobiernos
y organismos donde se discuten las medidas que eviten llegar a un punto de no retorno.
El liderazgo femenino puede reorientar las políticas económicas hacia modelos
socialmente justos y sostenibles, que racionalicen el uso de recursos naturales y
reduzcan el impacto de la actividad humana sobre el medio ambiente. Las mujeres son
determinantes en el diseño de un nuevo modelo energético que haga compatible el
progreso con el respeto al planeta. Es necesario plantear un debate amplio y profundo,
en el que todos los agentes sociales se comprometan con unos objetivos que marquen
una gran transición ecológica, con la energía y el empleo como cuestiones centrales.

¡Ahora Bailo Yo!
danced confe r ence
“I dance because you exist!” Thus began the show Camelamos Naquerar, which the great
flamenco dancer and choreographer Mario Maya premiered in 1976. At least that is how
I thought it began... How do I investigate, rewrite, or reframe a show that I have never
seen? How do I build from the resources I have? (these being confusing and incomplete).
How do I showcase it using my body as a flamenco dancer? Or better yet... using my
life itself. Could I talk about it? Camelamos Naquerar means “we want to talk” in Caló.
Could I have a voice other than my feet, my hips, or my arms? Could I tell, write, read,
and present the theme of this show, which deeply moves me? What role do we assign
to the past to create in the present? How to be aware of this and reflect upon time?
Questions, creations, resources that intertwine—threads that lead us to different places,
dance, music, texts—a world full of connections that make us travel through our senses.
¡Yo bailo porque vosotros existís!” Así comienza el espectáculo “Camelamos Naquerar”
que estrenaría el gran bailaor y coreógrafo Mario Maya en 1976. O eso creía yo, que
empezaba así...¿Cómo investigar, reescribir o reelaborar un espectáculo que nunca vi?,
¿cómo crear a partir del material del que dispongo? (que es incompleto y confuso)
¿cómo filtrarlo por mi propio cuerpo como bailaora para exponerlo? o...mejor aún..
por mi propia vida en sí. ¿Podría hablarlo? “Camelamos Naquerar” significa “queremos
hablar” en caló, así que...¿podría yo tener voz propia además de mis pies, mis caderas
o mis brazos?¿podría contar, escribir, leer y mostrar el material que atraviesa este
espectáculo y que a mí me conmueve?¿Qué papel le damos al pasado para crear en el
presente?¿Cómo hacer de esto una herramienta consciente que nos ayude a reflexionar
en el tiempo? Preguntas, creación, materiales que se cruzan, hilos que nos tiran hacia
otros lugares, baile, música, textos... todo un mundo lleno de conexiones que nos hacen
viajar a través de los sentidos.

The unstoppable advances in technology affect the automation of processes of industrial production and
the global economy in many ways. New machines and robots are being developed that require the design
of advanced algorithms fed by a huge variety of input data of new information and new products.
Far from the apocalyptic visions, which predict a drastic reduction in the number of jobs in various sectors,
people will continue to be the engine of production and will become the driving force behind innovation to
help businesses and other institutions to adapt to technological changes, in what has come to be called,
The Power of People.
This talk will be lead by Ramon López de Mántaras Badia research professor of the CSIC at the
Artificial Intelligence Research Institute. Doctor in Physics from the Paul Sabatier University of Toulouse,
“Master of Science” in Computer Science from the University of California-Berkeley and Doctor in Computer
Science from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia.
El imparable avance tecnológico afecta de lleno a la automatización de los procesos productivos
industriales y a la economía global. Con ello se están desarrollando nuevas máquinas y robots que
requieren de un avanzado diseño de algoritmos matemáticos alimentados de una enorme variedad de
datos de entrada de nueva información y de nuevos productos. Pero lejos de las visiones apocalípticas,
que auguran una drástica reducción de los puestos de trabajo en los distintos sectores, las personas
se mantendrán como motor del tejido productivo y se constituirán como fuerza impulsora detrás de la
innovación para apoyar a las empresas y entidades a adaptarse a los cambios tecnológicos, en lo que se
viene en denominar, The Power of People.
La conferencia será impartida por Ramon López de Mántaras Badia profesor de Investigación del
CSIC en el Instituto de Investigación en Inteligencia Artificial. Doctor en Física por la Universidad Paul
