SUMMARY:Learn to Play and Play to Learn
DESCRIPTION:We believe the museum is also a place to play\, discover\, and learn freely. The Play Room\, located on floor -1 of the museum\, emerges from this desire: to offer alternative ways of being in and thinking about the museum. It is a space where play\, creation\, experimentation\, and curiosity meet\, and where workshops such as “Learn to Play & Play to Learn” take place.\nDeveloping forms of mediation and engagement with art and space\, objects inspired by works in the MAC/CCB collections give rise to games and proposals that promote a more interactive and accessible visit. A “Play Room Leaflet\,” with texts and activity suggestions adapted to different age groups\, accompanies the experience.\nParticipation is open\, with a member of the Education and Mediation team on hand to assist\, suggest pathways\, and accompany discoveries. Open to families—proof that learning also happens through play! \n  \n

SUMMARY:An Atlantic Drift
DESCRIPTION:An Atlantic Drift charts and unravels paths through the arts of the 20th century\, specifically the period from 1909 to 1977\, seeking to disrupt preconceived notions and established canons by bringing together references and artistic forms that are usually kept apart. The exhibition follows an erratic chronology\, marked by digressions and temporal leaps\, thereby revealing connections and confrontations between the European and American shores to suggest potential relationships and drifts often overlooked or absent from art history. \nThe Atlantic\, particularly from the mid-20th century onward\, becomes a crucial space for transits and exiles\, fostering new geopolitical affinities that have shaped modern subjectivities with repercussions that persist to this day. As a reinstallation of the permanent collection\, An Atlantic Drift presents a selection of Portuguese and international artists spanning painting\, sculpture\, drawing\, installation\, and graphic arts\, mapping out art as part of world history and portraying modernity as a multifaceted eruption of social\, artistic\, and technological transformations. \nFrom Pablo Picasso to Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso\, Lourdes Castro to Marcel Duchamp\, Andy Warhol to Wifredo Lam\, Maria Helena Vieira da Silva to Joaquín Torres-García\, Jackson Pollock to Malangatana\, and Lucio Fontana to Ana Hatherly—a total of around 160 artists—the exhibition unfolds in chapters that reveal the complexities of historical and artistic developments in the 20th century. This period\, marked by two World Wars in Europe and their aftermath\, as well as the revolutionary and decolonisation processes of the 1970s\, is also seen as a time of transformation that invites rethinking through new narratives. \nAs a permanently evolving permanent exhibition\, An Atlantic Drift offers a unique presentation of the collections on loan to MAC/CCB—mainly the Berardo Collection\, but also the Holma/Ellipse Collection\, the Teixeira de Freitas Collection\, and the Portuguese State Contemporary Art Collection. Nonetheless\, it also incorporates loans from collections in Portugal\, allowing for reimagining the place of Portuguese art within 20th-century artistic developments. \n  \nCurated by Nuria Enguita (Artistic Director at MAC/CCB) and Marta Mestre (curator at MAC/CCB)\nScientific advisor: Mariana Pinto dos Santos \n  \nGuided exhibition tours \n \n◾ Cross-cutting\, Tour in English\nAn Atlantic Drift. The Arts of the 20th Century Based on the Berardo Collection + May I Help You? Posso Ajudar?

SUMMARY:May I Help You? Posso ajudar?
DESCRIPTION:The everyday question “May I help you?” was used by Andrea Fraser in a performance that addressed the complex institutional relationships within the art world. The same question may also be turned towards the museum itself: what kind of help is actually being offered\, and what kind of connection can still be expected in an era of increasing fragmentation\, dissonance and impermanence? The exhibition draws on five decades of artistic production\, from the 1970s to today\, and features works by ninety artists—including Ad Minoliti (in the museum’s main hall)\, Alberto Carneiro\, Carla Filipe\, Doris Salcedo\, Helena Almeida\, Gabriel Abrantes\, Gilbert & George\, Jeff Koons\, Júlia Ventura\, Kara Walker\, and Richard Serra\, among many others. The works are drawn from collections on long-term loan to the MAC/CCB (the Berardo Collection\, the State Contemporary Art Collection\, and the Teixeira de Freitas Collection)\, and are complemented by new commissions from Portuguese artists. \n  \nCurators Nuria Enguita and Marta Mestre\nCuratorial Adviser Raphael Fonseca (Denver Art Museum) \n  \nThe exhibition “MAY I HELP YOU? POSSO AJUDAR?” Arts and Artists from the 1970s Onwards\, inspired by Andrea Fraser’s performance of the same name\, explores the diversity of representations\, presences\, and narratives within the artistic field\, questioning the idea of a single\, linear direction in art history. Through dialogues between works spanning the last five decades\, the exhibition examines what artists are and do\, and the social roles they imagine for themselves. From the ruptures that redefined art in the 1970s to the accelerated digitalisation of the present\, it highlights a range of heterogeneous formats\, functions\, and intensities. \nNuria Enguita\nCurator of the exhibition and artistic director of MAC/CCB \n  \nArtists: \nGabriel Abrantes\, Helena Almeida\, Giovanni Anselmo\, Robert Barry\, Taysir Batniji\, Lothar Baumgarten\, Bernd & Hilla Becher\, Sara Bichão\, Irma Blank\, Alighiero Boetti\, Christian Boltanski\, Olaf Breuning\, Daniel Buren\, Alberto Carneiro\, Gabriel Chaile\, Adriano Costa\, Jim Dine\, Jimmie Durham\, Carla Filipe\, Fischli & Weiss\, Dan Flavin\, Fernanda Fragateiro\, Andrea Fraser\, Gilbert & George\, Simryn Gill\, Fernanda Gomes\, Félix González-Torres\, Dan Graham\, Hans Haacke\, David Hammons\, Ana Hatherly\, Mona Hatoum\, Kiluanji Kia Henda\, Thomas Hirschhorn\, Jenny Holzer\, Rebecca Horn\, Sanja Iveković\, Ana Jotta\, Donald Judd\, Mike Kelley\, Yazan Khalili\, Jeff Koons\, Joseph Kosuth\, Jannis Kounellis\, Barbara Kruger\, Louise Lawler\, Sol LeWitt\, Glenn Ligon\, João Marçal\, Agnes Martin\, Cildo Meireles\, Mario Merz\, Ad Minoliti\, Matt Mullican\, Bruce Nauman\, Senga Nengudi\, Chris Ofili\, Gabriel Orozco\, Damián Ortega\, Pino Pascali\, Silvestre Pestana\, Raymond Pettibon\, Antonio Pichillá\, Sandra Poulson\, Robert Rauschenberg\, Doris Salcedo\, Alan Saret\, Julião Sarmento\, Allan Sekula\, Richard Serra\, Jim Shaw\, Susana Solano\, Haim Steinbach\, Frank Stella\, Wolfgang Tillmans\, Rosemarie Trockel\, João Pedro Vale + Nuno Alexandre Ferreira\, Júlia Ventura\, Vídeo nas Aldeias\, Kara Walker\, Franz West\, Yonamine\, Bruno Zhu. \n  \n  \n Visit to the exhibition\n \n◾ Cross-cutting\, Tour in English\nAn Atlantic Drift.

SUMMARY:Revisiting\, Experimenting & Learning
DESCRIPTION:As part of the new proposals from the Education and Mediation Department\, we present a series of short courses dedicated to exploring significant moments and contexts in the history of modern and contemporary art. Designed as spaces for learning and reflection\, these in-person courses offer a close engagement with the museum’s collections and exhibitions\, inviting participants to revisit works\, artists\, an movements that shaped the development of 20th- and 21st-century art. Understanding an artist’s work involves not only grasping their ideas but also observing how those ideas take material form. Learning also means experimenting; and by connecting theoretical knowledge to practice\, we discover that making is a powerful way of understanding. Following an artist’s creative process through hands-on experimentation thus becomes a privileged pathway into learning. \nLasting six or nine hours\, these courses offer a focused and accessible training experience\, combining historical perspectives with direct encounters with artworks. This new strand of the Educational Programme strengthens the MAC/ CCB’s commitment to promoting knowledge\, critical thinking\, enjoyment\, and experimentation\, affirming the museum as a space for lifelong learning. \n  \nCristina Gameiro\nHead of Education and Mediation\, MAC/CCB

SUMMARY:Carte Blanche: A Garota Não
DESCRIPTION:Blending music\, storytelling\, and reflection\, the piece pays tribute to the artist’s mother while expanding into a broader homage to all women (mothers\, grandmothers\, friends\, and unknown others) who live between strength and fragility\, care and self-sacrifice. \nThrough an intimate narrative\, A Garota Não transforms personal memory into a collective biography\, questioning social norms and celebrating women’s resilience\, love\, and legacy. It is both a remembrance and a thank-you\, an act of resistance and tenderness\, inviting the audience to face emotion and allow happiness to enter. \n  \nCátia Oliveira\n(A Garota Não)
