Inés Molina Agudo

Bachelor in Art History (Complutense University of Madrid, Université Rennes 2, National Autonomous University of Mexico, 2017) and holder of a Master’s degree in Contemporary Art History and Visual Culture (Complutense University of Madrid, Reina Sofía Museum, Autonomous University of Madrid, 2018). She is currently completing a PhD at the latter institution, where she studies the phenomenon of marginal press that emerged in post-Francoist Spain (1975–1980), focusing on the capacity of these materials to channel popular creativity while articulating a counter-public sphere after the dictatorship.
She has undertaken research stays at institutions such as New York University and the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam and is a member of the European Society for Periodical Research (ESPRit). Her work has been published in international journals such as Kamchatka, Bajo el Volcán, Revista de Estudios Globales y Arte Contemporáneo, and Museological Review, as well as presented at academic conferences in France, the Netherlands, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Mexico, and the United States.
Additionally, her research has led her to collaborate closely with archives such as the Anselmo Lorenzo Foundation, the Uberto Stabile Collection at the University of Huelva, and the Social Movements Documentation Center Mercè Grenzner.
