Pedro Cabrita Reis

Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall, Stockholm

Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall presents an exhibition by the Portuguese artist Pedro Cabrita Reis. Cabrita Reis was born 1956 in Lisbon, where he continues to live and work.

Pedro Cabrita Reis will exhibit four site-specific, large installations made specifically for Magasin 3. The foundation for Cabrita Reis´ artwork is painting. His ability to develop the medium has led him to the three-dimensional and in the four installations in the exhibition his work approaches architecture.
The work has been developed in a process including knowledgeable choices of found material and parts of buildings that have been worked on and shaped for their new purpose.

Pedro Cabrita Reis first came to international attention as a participant in Documenta IX in Kassel, 1992. He was the Portuguese representative at the São Paulo Biennale, 1994, and the Venice Biennale, 1997. He was a member of the Zeitwenden exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Bonn, 1999, and was nominated for The Vincent Award at the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht 1999.

A selection of his solo exhibitions include; Museum Folkwang in Essen, Stichting De Appel in Amsterdam, IVAM in Valencia, Museum Moderner Kunst-Stiftung Ludwig in Vienna and Serralves-Museum of Contemporary Art in Porto.

A fully illustrated catalogue, with an interview of the artist by the author Doris von Drathen, art historian and art critic, is being produced in conjunction with the exhibition.

The exhibition is curated by David Neuman and Richard Julin.
