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  \n◾ Course An Atlantic Journey through Modern Art\nSaturdays\, October 17 and 31 \, November 7\, 14\, 21 and 28\, 202610:00am to 13:00pm \nWhat possibilities does telling the story of modern art from an Atlantic perspective offer us? Guided by the idea of deviation\, this course brings into the discussion artists\, journeys and intersections that are rarely covered in textbooks but which the exhibition “An Atlantic Drift. The Arts of the 20th Century Based on the Berardo Collection” allows us to explore. Challenging the notion of a single interpretation and championing multiple possibilities for exploration\, the course is delivered in person\, comprising six guided sessions held between the exhibition space and the auditorium. \nCoordination Cristina Gameiro / Conceived and led by Fabrícia Valente\nFee: €95 per participant / Booking deadline: 9 October \n  \nGuided exhibition tours \n

SUMMARY:MAC/CCB 3rd Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:MAC/CCB celebrates its 3rd anniversary from 23 to 25 October\, with free admission throughout. We will open Here I Stand\, an exhibition by Ângela Ferreira\, and her large-scale work Zip Zap Circus will be installed in the square\, where it will be activated by students from the Chapitô Circus School. Friday evening will continue with a DJ set\, while Saturday will feature a “Discreet Music Series” concert with Nkisi and Gonçalo F. Cardoso / Gonzo\, as well as conversations around Frida Orupabo’s exhibition\, guided tours\, and a lecture by António Guerreiro. The Playroom will be open for younger visitors\, and we will also take the opportunity to present our latest catalogues\, dedicated to the exhibitions Terra Crua\, Multiple Eyes\, Cloud of Confusion\, and “May I Help You? Posso Ajudar?” Arts and Artists from the 1970s Onwards.  \nIt will be a great pleasure to celebrate this anniversary with you!  \n  \n23 October\n→ 6:00pm in the MAC/CCB Auditorium\nPre-opening conversation with artist Ângela Ferreira and MAC/CCB curator and artistic director Nuria Enguita \n→ 7:00pm on Floor 0\nOpenning exhibition Ângela Ferreira. Here I Stand \n→ 7:30pm CCB Plaza Performance Zip Zap Circus School\, by Ângela Ferreira performed by students from the Chapitô Circus School \n\nThe installation Zip Zap Circus School refers to two unrealised projects by modernist architects in different parts of the world: one by Mies van der Rohe in the Netherlands and the other by Pancho Guedes in South Africa. Using these plans and models as the basis for her work\, Ângela Ferreira shows how projects can be adapted to other uses\, contexts\, lives\, and events. The large-scale work is now being installed in the CCB Square in Lisbon\, where it will be activated by students from the Chapitô Circus School. \n  \n→ 8:00pm on Floor 0\nDJ SET by Party Smith \n  \n  \n24 October\n  \n→ 3:00pm on Floor -1\nVisit/conversation with curator Marta Mestre\, Colectivo FACA (Andreia Coutinho and Maribel Mendes Sobreira)\, and Ícaro Lira\, in the context of the exhibition Frida Orupabo. Cloud of Confusion \n  \n→ 5:00pm on Floor -1\n“Discreet Music Series\,” with Nkisi and Gonçalo F. Cardoso / Gonzo. A gathering exploring immersion—in its meditative and sonic dimensions—within the space of the exhibition Frida Orupabo. Cloud of Confusion \n  \nThe Discreet Music Series\, unfolding across four events throughout the year\, brings together eight artists in pairs to create environments conceived as atmospheres of different tonalities\, shaped both by the influences and distinctive characteristics of the artists involved and by the spaces in which the trajectories of their sounds unfold. Created by Lovers & Lillypops\, the project begins at MAC/CCB with the meeting between Nkisi (a DJ\, producer\, and visual artist born in the Congo and raised in Belgium) and Gonçalo F. Cardoso (a travelling musician and sound artist whose practice is closely aligned with artistic research). \n  \n→ 6:00pm at CCB Plaza\nPerformance Zip Zap Circus School\, by Ângela Ferreira performed by students from the Chapitô Circus School \n  \n\n25 October\n→ 3:00pm\, Floor 0\nVisit/conversation with Ângela Ferreira and Nuria Enguita\, in the context of the exhibition Ângela Ferreira. Here I Stand \n→ 4:00pm in the MAC/CCB Auditorium\nPresentation of the catalogues published in 2026 \n→ 5:00pm in the MAC/CCB Auditorium\nThe Temptation of Legibility: The Critical Dimension of Art in the Face of Thematic Conformism. Lecture by António Guerreiro\, introduced by Nuria Enguita \n\nIn many contemporary artworks\, we can discern a strong temptation towards legibility\, as though they were driven by a desire for meaning\, in the manner of a text articulating more or less codified thematic content. This type of art\, which makes its political meaning explicit and expresses a desire to respond critically to the challenges of its time\, is often deeply conformist. Examining these questions entails diagnosing the state of art criticism and the discourses that legitimise contemporary art in many of its most conspicuous materialisations. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Ângela Ferreira
DESCRIPTION:The practice of Ângela Ferreira\, a central figure in Portuguese contemporary art\, spans installation\, video\, photography\, and sculpture. Born in Maputo ( Mozambique) and trained in sculpture at the University of Cape Town during the apartheid era\, her biography is deeply interwoven with the themes that traverse her work. Her exhibition at MAC/CCB follows a trajectory from her early pieces of the 1990s to her most recent creations\, revealing her sustained research into the facts\, infrastructures\, figures\, and architectures linked to colonialism. Ferreira’s projects both comment on and update the enduring effects of colonial history while foregrounding the modes of resistance that persist in response. She is recognised as one of the first artists in Portugal to openly confront and question the nation’s colonial past. \n  \nCurator Nuria Enguita \n  \nPublic Programmes \n◾ Exhibition Tour/Conversation with Ângela Ferreira and Nuria Enguita\nSunday\, october 25 at 3:00pm \n  \nExhibition Tour \n◾ Sunday\, november 8\, january 24\, at 11:00am\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt \n  \n◾ Visit to Ângela Ferreira’s studio\nSaturday\, february 20\, at 11:00am\nFree admission\, subject to prior registration to the email address servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt \n  \n◾ Guided Tour with artist Ângela Ferreira\nSaturday\, February 27 at 4:00pm\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.

Free participation\, subject to prior booking. \nMANAS: Harm reduction\, artivism\, and the rights of the Manas. Lisbon\, Portugal. From the outset\, MANAS has combined artistic practices with harm-reduction strategies and community health initiatives. Through zine-making workshops\, body-awareness exercises\, storytelling practices\, and collective cooking\, participants have found pathways towards self-expression and political empowerment. At the same time\, harm reduction has remained central to the project’s praxis. At the heart of MANAS lies the principle of “nothing about us without us.” Its mission includes challenging intersectional forms of discrimination based on gender identity\, race\, class\, age\, disability\, and sexual orientation\, whilst building solidarity through a shared political voice. \n  \n Visit to the exhibition \n◾ Saturday\, September 19 \, at 3:00pm\nTour/talk with curator Marta Mestre\nFree participation. \n  \n◾ TOUR/TALK WITH UNA (BLACK UNION FOR THE ARTS)\, COLECTIVOFACA (ANDREIA COUTINHO AND MARIBEL MENDES SOBREIRA)\, AND ÍCARO LIRA\nSunday\, September 20\, at 4.00 pm\nA conversation between ColectivoFACA\, Ícaro Lira\, and members of UNA exploring image-making and critical visual practices developed by Black practitioners within the European context\, seeking common ground between Portugal and Norway.

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\, July 5\, at 11:00am\nFree participation with prior registration at servico.educativo.museu@ccb.pt \n

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  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Course An Atlantic Journey through Modern Art
DESCRIPTION:What possibilities does telling the story of modern art from an Atlantic perspective offer us? Guided by the idea of deviation\, this course brings into the discussion artists\, journeys and intersections that are rarely covered in textbooks but which the exhibition “An Atlantic Drift.

SUMMARY:Ministery for The Sensible
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps we need to protect\, organize\, and reclaim what makes us Human. We might use social structures to serve dimensions beyond the functional or profitable\, defending what seems dispensable or useless. A Ministery for the Sensible could uphold sensitivity as a path toward Humanity. \nThis project envisions a shared space for encounter and reflection\, empowering a community of cultural participants who\, with art as an ally\, embrace sensibility as a way to build social and political connections. \n  \nCreation & Coordination Sara Franqueira \n  \nThe project will start with two sectors: the Department of the Spectator and the Institute of the Invisible. Both offer scheduled meetings and access to performances throughout the year. If you’re curious and eager to discover the spectator within you\, one of these groups is ready for you. \n

SUMMARY:Pedro Melo Alves' Omniae Large Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Led by drummer and composer Pedro Melo Alves\, the Omniae Large Ensemble presents a new chapter in a project that\, over the past decade\, has established itself as one of the most distinctive examples of the intersection between contemporary composition and jazz improvisation in Portugal. Conceived along the lines of a contemporary chamber ensemble\, the group combines meticulously notated writing with spaces for real-time composition\, in which each performer plays an active role in shaping the musical discourse.\nOriginally founded as a septet and awarded the Bernardo Sassetti Composition Prize in 2016\, the ensemble expanded in 2020\, following a commission from Guimarães Jazz\, into an orchestral formation bringing together some of the most significant musicians of the new European generation. The album Lumina (Clean Feed\, 2021) received widespread international critical acclaim\, earning the awards for Best New Group in the El Intruso International Critics Poll and Best Portuguese Album from Jazz.pt\, as well as a nomination for Best Jazz Album at the 2022 Vodafone Play Awards.\nThe current line-up brings together seventeen musicians based in cities including Porto\, Lisbon\, Berlin\, New York\, Bern\, and Amsterdam\, whose artistic practices span jazz and improvised music\, as well as contemporary\, experimental\, and electronic music. \n
