AIRES MATEUS
3€ Desconto de 50% para Amigos de Serralves, jovens até aos 18 anos, estudantes e maiores de 65 anos.
Beleza apesar de tudo é uma exploração das investigações espaciais desenvolvidas pelos arquitetos Aires Mateus nos últimos vinte anos. Mostra como certas ideias espaciais têm conduzido esta dupla, apresentando noventa e uma representações espaciais que percorrem alterações de escala intensas, diversidades matéricas e tácteis, que transformam esta exposição num laboratório de experiências físicas, sensíveis e belas. O programa paralelo parte de uma observação atenta à exposição e procura trazer ao público uma reflexão sobre as influências dos arquitetos Aires Mateus, dos seus cruzamentos artísticos e novas vozes do panorama da arquitetura em Portugal. No dia 06 de maio, António Choupina modera a conversa com Eduardo Souto de Moura, Gonçalo Byrne e João Luís Carrilho da Graça.
