SUMMARY:Valentina and Valeria Are Not Dead
DESCRIPTION:Esmeralda’s rehearsal is suddenly interrupted by two figures — Valentina and Valeria. But who are they\, exactly? They seem to exist in a kind of desert space\, somewhere between the Internet and the Beyond. Have they emerged from the actress’s memory lapses? Are they a product of her imagination? \nValentina and Valeria Are Not Dead is a play about the intersections between memory and imagination\, fiction and non-fiction\, theatre and life\, death and mourning. A multi-voiced monologue that plays with the process of theatre itself\, revealing one\, two\, three women. \n  \nOn Sunday\, March 22\, a post-show talk will take place with Flávia Gusmão and Jacinto Lucas Pires. \n  \nIn this performance\, strobe lighting is used.

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.

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:Open Museum
DESCRIPTION:MAC/CCB presents a festive programme of performance\, books\, music\, and conviviality. Conceived as a kind of finissage for the exhibitions Avenida 211: An Artists’ Space in Lisbon and Place of Being: The Burle Marx Legacy\, these proposals invite visitors to explore their artistic universes. Now that spring is beginning to show and a change of cycle can be felt\, “Open Museum” renews the encounter with the public. \nThe festivities begin on Friday with the premiere of a new creation by choreographer João dos Santos Martins\, entitled Alarve\, in dialogue with one of Brazil’s most important landscape architects\, Roberto Burle Marx. On Saturday\, the catalogue of Avenida 211 will be launched\, offering an opportunity to learn about the history of this iconic cultural space in Lisbon through the perspectives of curatorship\, essay\, and design. This will be followed by a music programme devised by Filho Único\, returning to its days at Avenida 211 with six mini-concerts of half an hour each\, taking place inside the exhibition. In the late afternoon\, João dos Santos Martins’s Alarve will be performed again. To close the day\, everyone is invited to raise a glass with some drinks and light refreshments. \n  \nProgramme \nMarch 27 \n6:00 pm Performance Alarve\, João dos Santos Martins \n\nMarch 28 \n2:30 pm Opening of the Playroom: Atelier – A Space to Imagine\, Play\, and Create\n3:00 pm Launch of the catalogue Avenida 211: An Artists’ Space in Lisbon\n4:00 pm Concerts programmed by Filho Único\n \nVasco Alves e as Rochas da Ajuda\nSa🎀ra\nAmuleto Apotropaico\nSheila RamirezVaiapraia\nInês Tartaruga Água\n6:00 pm Performance Alarve\, João dos Santos Martins\n7:00 pm Toast

SUMMARY:Launch of the catalogue Avenida 211: An Artists’ Space in Lisbon
DESCRIPTION:Catalogue launch with Catarina Rosendo\, Ricardo Nicolau\, and Pedro Levi Bismark (essay authors)\, Sofia Gonçalves (design)\, Sara De Chiara and Giorgia Casara (research)\, Nuria Enguita (MAC/CCB artistic director and co-curator of the exhibition)\, Marta Mestre (MAC/CCB curator and co-curator of the exhibition)\, and Diogo Montenegro (MAC/CCB editions). \nIn keeping with the collaborative spirit that characterised the raw material-space of Avenida 211: An Artists’ Space in Lisbon\, as well as the collectivist intervention underlying the show\, MAC/CCB now publishes the catalogue bearing the same title. Edited through a kaleidoscopic approach by Nuria Enguita and Marta Mestre\, curators of the exhibition\, with the support of researchers Giorgia Casara and Sara De Chiara\, the book begins with an extensive visual essay by Pedro Tropa which\, by documenting the exhibition’s trajectory\, integratively structures the editorial framework. The graphic design by Sofia Gonçalves establishes continuities and divergences between the different categories of information presented—documentation\, archival material\, chronologies of events\, reproductions of works\, explanatory texts\, and more. Finally\, the universe of Avenida 211 is complemented by essays by Catarina Rosendo\, Ricardo Nicolau\, and Pedro Levi Bismarck\, each situating this “unrepeatable experience” within the artistic\, affective\, and socioeconomic contexts of the time and territory in which it unfolded. \n  \nOpen Museum programme.

SUMMARY:Filho Único Concerts
DESCRIPTION:Vasco Alves and the Rochas da Ajuda\nA formation shaped by pressure\, friction\, and the movement of air. Since the summer of 2024\, the group has been working on polyphony from a materialist perspective through bagpipes in constant transformation. Like a weave of small pieces exploring different aspects of the instrument—its physical limits and its auditory perception—the piper friends Teresa Mendonça\, André Pires\, and Carlos Santos join Vasco Alves here. \n\nInês Tartaruga Água\nA multidisciplinary maker\, enthusiast of radical regeneration\, sculptor of sonic situations\, and advocate of the DIY philosophy\, her practice unfolds between the visual arts and performance. She has taken part in group exhibitions and public events since 2013. Água has passed through various venues\, festivals\, and institutional drifts\, and frequently collaborates with Xavier Paes\, being one of the minds behind REFLUXO and DIES LEXIC. \n\nSheila Ramirez\nSheila Ramirez (Santiago de Cuba\, 2000) is a Cuban-Angolan artist\, researcher\, and designer. Drawing on the philosophies and imaginaries of eastern Cuba\, Haiti\, and ancestral Kongo memory\, she constructs gestures from family archives\, oral traditions\, and musicalities. Her practice explores continuous renewal\, transformation\, and initiations\, addressing colonial violence in relationships between people\, ancestors\, and territory. \n\nSa🎀ra\nDrawing on the sonic plasticity of cyberspace and its archives\, sara collects samples and field recordings. Through lo-fi assemblage\, she builds a lexicon of unfolding sounds and textures while taking inspiration from the worlds of dub and hip-hop. \n  \nVaiapraia\nA self-taught transdisciplinary artist from Setúbal\, Rodrigo Vaiapraia began performing live in 2013. He created the project Vaiapraia e As Rainhas do Baile\, releasing the LP 1755 (2016)\, influenced by riot grrrl and queercore. He performs widely in festivals\, closed venues\, and independent spaces. He is co-founder of Maternidade and of the festival Rama em Flor. In 2025 he released the album Alegria Terminal. \nAmuleto Apotropaico\nFull-spectrum percussion oscillates between elastic polyrhythms and pointillist gestures off the grid\, unfolding into the modulation of polyphonic resonators. António Feiteira exchanges traditional instruments for concrete electronic percussion inspired by Milford Graves. Samples replace drums\, and muscle memories become MIDI automatisations\, in an exploration derived from the techno-gnosis of hyperreality. \n  \nOpen Museum programme.

SUMMARY:Alarve
DESCRIPTION:João dos Santos Martins’s work explores relationships between dance\, language\, and transmission. For this performance\, presented within the exhibition Place of Being: The Burle Marx Legacy\, the dancer and choreographer takes the body as a field of negotiation between nature and construction. The work enters into dialogue with his personal experience of migrating from a rural to an urban environment\, and with the idea of adaptation—of both body and subject. Just as the Brazilian landscape designer understood the garden as an “adaptation of the ecological environment to the demands of civilisation\,” migration reveals an ongoing process of adjusting gestures. \nDance is approached as a practice of unlearning and reinvention: an exercise in recognising the social and bodily layers that accumulate in the attempt to adapt habits seen as strange\, rough\, or wild. Rather than representing an identity\, the work presents a field of friction between nature\, rurality and culture. The body becomes matter in process\, where inside and outside enter into dialogue and propose forms of listening. \n  \nBy and featuring João dos Santos Martins\nCostume Darius Dolatyari-Dolatdoust\nLadainha Franz Schubert\nProduction Maria Monteiro | Associação Parasita\, Association Mi-Maï\nCo-production Associação Parasita\, MAC/CCB – Museum of Contemporary Art and Architecture Centre\, Festival Silvestre\, Sismógrafo\nResidencies Espaço Parasita\, Lamia Santolino \n  \nOpen Museum programme.
