BODY, ABSTRACTION AND LANGUAGE IN PORTUGUESE ART DEPOSITS FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR CULTURE IN THE SERRALVES COLLECTION

This exhibition presents works from the Portuguese Secretary State for Culture (SEC) Collection on deposit in the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art. It represents both the foundations of the Serralves Collection and a singular perspective on the Portuguese art context in the decades of the 1960s and 1980s. The works displayed express the various dialogues and formal confluences that Portuguese post-war artists were able to establish both with each other and with the global art context.
‘Body, Abstraction and Language in Portuguese Art’ is part of a programme of exhibitions and sited presentations of works from the Serralves Collection that furthers the Museum’s aim of making the Collection visible and accessible to a broader public throughout the country.
Production: Fundação de Serralves — Museu de Arte Contemporânea, Porto
