Exhebitions:

"Profanário"
Indivual exhebition in João Pedro Rodrigues Gallery, Porto, Portugal


The exhibition "Profanário" result by the search of materials and conceptual bridges between the world of profane, and the world of the sacred. Exploring thus a border hybrid and wide, in a contemporary context and sometimes iconoclástic.
It is above all a personal search that revisits questions and human behaviour in its social attitudes, using references critically erotic and kitsch, in the collective portuguese conscience .

A exposição “Profanário” resulta da procura de pontes materiais e conceptuais entre o mundo do profano, e o mundo do sagrado. Explorando assim uma fronteira híbrida e vasta, num contexto contemporâneo e ás vezes iconoclástico.
É sobretudo uma pesquisa pessoal que revisita e questiona o comportamento humano na sua atitude social, utilizando críticamente referências eróticas, iconográficas e kitsch, presentes na consciência colectiva portuguesa.


"Afrontamentos" 2 . Colective, Casa da Guia , Cascais, Portugal

Collective project, which eight visual artists present a work whose concept "Hot flushes" serves as a matrix. This ambiguous word, win a partícularidade plastic and conceptual to confront the public with various solutions to what is expected and not a reaction active indeferente by this and may vary from enchantment to the amazement of eroticism to the social reflection.
The intimacy is questioned here, as well as the concept of space as a gallery or cultural area, and the solutions artistic ability to be transformed, as the viewer, afrontado.
This project seeks to inter-act with some cultural centers, museums and galleries, as in the example of "Hot flushes 1", double-André Fradique and Vanessa Muscolino, the Gallery Draft Vila Nova de Cerveira. This project, does not want to be confined to a single physical space, thus a continuation and versatility, crossing experiences from north to south of the country on the part of artists and the public.

Projecto colectivo, o qual oito artistas plásticos apresentam uma obra cujo conceito “Afrontamentos” serve como matriz. Esta palavra ambígua, ganha uma partícularidade plástica e conceptual ao confrontar o público com várias soluções em que é esperada uma reacção activa e não indeferente por parte deste, podendo variar do encantamento ao espanto, do erotismo à reflexão social.
A intimidade é aqui questionada, assim como o conceito de espaço enquanto galeria ou espaço cultural, tendo as soluções artísticas a capacidade de o transformar, tal como o espectador, afrontado.
Este Projecto pretende inter-agir com alguns centros culturais, museus e galerias, como no exemplo de “Afrontamentos 1”, dupla de André Fradique e Vanessa Muscolino, na Galeria Projecto de Vila Nova de Cerveira. Este projecto, não pretende ficar limitado a um único espaço físico, conseguindo assim uma versatilidade e continuação, cruzando experiencias de norte a sul do país por parte dos artistas e do público.
