The Museo Reina Sofía Library and Documentation Centre holds a workshop to present different printed materials around LGBTQIA+ themes that have been added to its holdings in recent months. 

The activity comprises a short introduction to different archives and holdings, including special collections (photobooks, artists’ books, multiples, ephemera, and so on) which are not usually available for consultation. Within the exhibit are Spanish and international copies, both current and out of print, with each publication presented individually to paint a picture of the different artists-authors, publishers and the context in which the pieces were made. Those attending the workshop will have the chance to browse the works, ask questions and take part in the conversation that arises between participants.
