Exhibition of the Collection + Dark Skies by Pedro
Calapez
The Innervisions exhibition presents the Casa das
Histórias Paula Rego collection using a differentiated
exhibition strategy, based on the non-illustrative dialogue
between one of the artist's most emblematic
pieces, Angel (1998), and a new series of works by the
contemporary artist Pedro Calapez, created specifically for this
exhibition as an engagement/installation.
The pieces chosen from the collection, ranging from abstract to
figurative, share common features, themes and narratives aligned in
a dreamlike and fantastic aesthetic, exploring the themes of love,
seduction, fear, religion, power and subjugation, transgression and
terror.
Exhibition curated by Catarina Alfaro.
