Curation by Marta Mestre

15 April a 5  September de 2021 – CIAJG Guimarães

The beginning of the artistic programme “On the edges of fiction” is marked by eight new exhibitions and by dialogues with the collections.

The traditions of the people of Cabinda in José de Guimarães’ “African Alphabet”. Transmission and emancipation in African “maternities”, and in the work of Yasmin Thayná, Maria Amélia Coutinho and Carla Cruz. Sarah Maldoror’s cinema, in short-circuit with the Masks Room. “Cosmic Tones”, by Francisca Carvalho. Neon letters and deconstruction of the sign, by José de Guimarães. The truths and fictions of the “past”, with Rodrigo Hernández. A theatre of unusual characters, by Fernão Cruz. The myth machine, with Horácio Frutuoso, José de Guimarães, Kiluanji Kia Henda, Manoel de Oliveira and Anna Francheschini. A colossus inside the museum, with twelve artists, from various countries.

In this programme I present Conjugate the Plural 2021 with a mural, a poster and a Podcast that can be hear at Conjugar no Plural.
