Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, Porto

Blue lines, red threads
Social tendencies through artists' publications

Artist publishing has offered space for artists to create, distribute and exchange their work freely and independently.
Crossing the boundaries between research, production and criticism as well as between documentary and fiction, books and magazines have enabled artwork and writing to co-exist.
This exhibition explores recurrent themes in artist publications over the last 50 years.

Curator: Kit hammonds

Symposium "Group exhibitions: A Critical Reflection"
from 14 MAR 2014 to 15 MAR 2014

On the occasion of the exhibition ‘12 Contemporaries: Present States’, a symposium will be held at the Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Serralves, which will focus on the conditions and challenges contemporary artists face today and the history of the group exhibition in Portugal over the past two decades. Organized by critic and curator Óscar Faria and Liliana Coutinho, Head of Education of the Serralves Museum,
Group Exhibitions: A Critical Reflection will gather a national and international roster of artists, curators and critics.
Developed through a process of research in Portugal, the UK, Germany and the US, where many of the featured artists currently live and work, the exhibition considers the critical reception and urgency of artistic practice in Portugal, as well as within the expanded field of contemporary global realities.
With works by: Gabriel Abrantes, Sónia Almeida, Pedro Barateiro, Sérgio Carronha, Mauro Cerqueira, Priscila Fernandes, Carla Filipe, Pedro Lagoa, Nuno da Luz, Ana Santos, André Sousa, !Von Calhau!

Opening the debate will be Diedrich Diederichsen, well known art critic and professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, followed by Portuguese contributors that include, among others, Carla Filipe, Pedro Lapa and Miguel von Hafe Pérez, debating the critical reception of major exhibitions, and the ways in which they have stimulated artistic production at specific junctures.
