Exhibition Raw Earth

Conversations Around Earth: Earth in Urban Contexts
Wednesday 17 June at 5:00pm, at the Architecture Centre
What destiny do we assign to excavated earth in the Portuguese capital? Following on from the “Terras de Lisboa” project, this conversation establishes connections with international cooperative experiences focused on the valorisation of excavated earth, placing them in dialogue with the national context. Architects, builders, engineers, and policy-makers examine the logistical, bureaucratic, and cultural challenges that hinder circulation and access to this material, with the aim of exploring viable models for integrating local earth into the construction of the city itself.

Talk in Portuguese language, with free admission, subject to prior registration servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt.

Reading and Listening Room
cadavre exquis / cadáver esquisito / exquisite corpse
Departing from the idea that the museum is inhabited by many bodies, experiences, and forms of knowledge, this project gives voice to people who rarely form part of its institutional discourse: CCB workers and visitors who do not always recognise themselves in artistic languages or have opportunities to be heard. Conceived by the collective FACA and Ícaro Lira, with guidance from Andreia C. Coutinho, Ícaro Lira, and Maribel Mendes Sobreira, the project invites us to look at the exhibition far beyond the artworks themselves, as a living archive in constant transformation. A table—a place of encounter, conversation, and collective construction—serves as the central device, inspired by the Surrealists’ cadavre exquis. Starting from simple questions, emotions, memories, and interpretations are explored. Developed over four moments, this project creates a space for listening, sharing, and collective creation, grounded in the exhibition and its multiple layers of meaning..
