SUMMARY:Exercício de Montagem
DESCRIPTION:Exercício de Montagem is a film in progress that is a performance that is a film that is a performance: an attempt to make sense of something that has been seen and cannot be unseen in that place called Palestine. A performance that rehearses the editing of a film imagined during a trip to Palestine in 2023. \nHow do Palestinians live in the West Bank? And in East Jerusalem? And in ’48? What is their daily life like? Where are they able to move\, and where are they forbidden to go? What is a checkpoint\, and how does it shape these people’s everyday lives? Why did M.\, in a café in East Jerusalem\, ask us to open our eyes because “everything is political”? \nNarrated in two voices — one of them that of the Palestinian artist Tarab طرب — this is just one of the possible editing exercises of a complex and traumatic story\, drawn from the daily lives of women and men of a country that is not recognized as a country. The material comes from three trips to Palestine (between 2023 and 2026) and from the records that resulted from them — images\, sounds\, diaries\, notebooks\, memorabilia — as well as from the profound impact and transformation these journeys had on those who experienced them. \n

SUMMARY:Terra Crua
DESCRIPTION:At a time of mounting pressure on the planet’s limits\, we look to raw earth not as a nostalgic return\, but as a natural\, local\, and readily available resource. The exhibition moves from matter to action: from the physical and mineral complexity of soil to accumulated knowledge\, and on to practices that reclaim earth as a viable\, ethical\, and poetic building material. Beginning with the ground beneath our feet\, it invites visitors to rediscover raw earth as matter\, archive\, and agent within contemporary architecture in Portugal. Bringing together scientific and historical material\, prototypes\, and case studies\, as well as collaborative experiments analysing and reusing excavated soil from construction sites across Lisbon\, the exhibition reveals its performance and potential as a circular resource\, while opening up new possibilities for its role in shaping the city. \n  \nCurator Madalena Vidigal \n  \n  \n◾ Conversations around earth: Earth in urban contexts\nWednesday\, 17 June\, at 5:00pm at the Architecture Centre\nWhat 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. \nTalk in Portuguese language\, with free admission\, subject to prior registration servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt. \n  \n◾ From conversation to film\nSaturday\, 20 June\, at 3:30pm\nThis double programme begins with a guided visit to the Terra Crua exhibition led by curator Madalena Vidigal and architects Nuno Vasconcelos (DOING) and Tânia Teixeira (CRU). This is followed\, at 5:00 pm\, by a film screening\, also focused on the theme of the ground beneath our feet.\nMAC/CCB auditorium \nIn Portuguese language\, with free admission\, subject to prior registration servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt. \n  \nVisit to the exhibition \n◾ Sunday\, 19 July\, at 11:00am\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt

SUMMARY:Frida Orupabo
DESCRIPTION:In her first solo exhibition in Portugal\, Frida Orupabo revisits the vast image archive she has been assembling on her Instagram account: a collection comprising material from colonial archives\, ethnographic photographs\, family portraits\, pop culture icons\, and digital fragments. For the artist\, this archive lays bare the tensions between intimacy and violence\, establishing a critical and emotional space. Inspired by digital flow\, the exhibition emphasises the “abyss” of images—their strangeness and their dispersed reverberations.\nSem alterações: In dialogue with the architecture of MAC/CCB\, the show unfolds as a linear sequence of eight moments\, echoing the continuous sliding between screens that defines our digital experience. Its title evokes both the digital cloud where images and data are stored\, and the mist of information\, memory\, and oblivion it produces.

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.. \n  \n  \n Visit to the exhibition \n◾ Sunday\, june 21 and  july 12\, at 11:00am\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt

SUMMARY:Multiple Eyes
DESCRIPTION:In an era when screens shape our perception of reality and algorithms dictate our preferences\, the works of these artists—fusing the sensory\, the symbolic\, the ancestral\, and the spiritual with the popular\, the carnivalesque\, the magical\, and the abject—propose an alternative: storytelling as an intimate\, porous\, and polyphonic practice. Multiple Eyes brings together three artists from different generations who understand narrative practice as a collaborative and political space. The exhibition invites audiences to view otherness not as threat but as an opportunity for learning\, reflection\, and co-creating knowledge. Challenging singular and binary narratives\, and reclaiming storytelling from systems of control\, these works demonstrate how art can open spaces for dialogue\, empathy\, and the recognition of diverse ways of knowing and imagining the present. \n  \nCurators Nuria Enguita\, Rafael Barber Cortell \n  \nGuided tours \n◾ Sunday\, May 24 and July 5\, at 11:00am\nFree participation with prior registration at servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt \n

SUMMARY:José Pedro Croft
DESCRIPTION:Prints\, drawings\, and reliefs interact with a group of sculptures that occupy the longitudinal axis of the exhibition space. These are the reflections\, enclaves\, and deviations of José Pedro Croft\, one of Portugal’s most acclaimed artists\, presented on Floor 0 of MAC/CCB. The selection for this solo exhibition reflects the artist’s ongoing exploration of body\, scale\, space\, and architecture\, as well as the subtle thresholds between plane and three-dimensionality. The show unfolds along two interlinked lines: on the one hand\, the dialogue between graphic processes\, constructive tradition\, and architectural elements; on the other\, a sculptural rigour that invites the viewer into a slow\, perceptive experience that resists the acceleration of our times. \n  \nCurator Luiz Camillo Osorio \n  \nVisit to the exhibition \n  \n◾ Sunday\, 17 May at 4:00pm\nJosé Pedro Croft guides us through the Reflections\, Enclaves\, Deviations of his work\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt \n  \n◾ Sunday\, 17 May and 28 June\, at 11:00am\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt

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:Conference – The Same Nothing in Everything: The Baroque Torsion of the Gaze and the Disenchantment of the World
DESCRIPTION:How can we think about nothingness within the excess we usually associate with the Baroque? Revisiting a common operation of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries\, this lecture proposes a détour through torsion to approach what hides before our eyes — in anamorphosis — in the ingenious works of that period. As Monteverdi wrote\, “there is another point of view to consider\,” and the Baroque allegorical strategy reveals that everything is always something else. Rather than superficial decoration\, the Baroque is approached as a worldview — a way of perceiving and positioning oneself in the theatre of the world — marked by tensions between bodily seduction and spiritual persuasion\, sensuality and transcendence\, revelry and lament\, and between attention to fleeting reality and the desire for the infinite. Might this Baroque rhetoric\, in its refusal of classical order and serenity\, help us comment on the present? \n  \nThis lecture takes place within the context of the concert Da Desordem das Paixões\, by Os Músicos do Tejo and Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz\, on June 26 and 27\, at 8 pm and 7 pm respectively. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Da Desordem das Paixões
DESCRIPTION:Sexta Maior Cycle – Renaissance Music \nOs Músicos do Tejo and Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz seek to construct a path seen as if from outside and sensed as right or wrong\, provoking an agitation both interior and exterior\, bringing together music and dance in homage to those who danced to remain alive\, relevant within the state of the nation-state\, decisive in the art of courtly metaphysics\, alone before the eyes of all. \n  \nAs part of this recital\, the conference The Same Nothing in Everything: The Baroque Torsion of the Gaze and the Disenchantment of the World\, by Paulo Pires do Vale\, will take place in Sala Lopes-Graça on June 26 at 6:30 pm. The conference will be spoken in Portuguese without translation. \n  \nEl Corte Inglés supports the CCB’s Classical Music Mediation Programme.
