“It is a happy talent to know how to play.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson.
We hear ya, Ralph. And this is especially true when it comes to art. That is, if you don’t know how to play, you might as well get a real job.
For the next two months, Belém’s main artists’ playground MAAT presents a group multimedia exhibit based on the concept of — you guessed it — playing, aptly entitled Playmode.
Big players like Brad Downey, Gabriel Orozco, and Ana Vieira are joined by over a dozen lesser-known but equally significant local and international players who, in the words of the organizers, “adopt the theme exploring new ways of seeing, to participate and transform the world, using the game critically.”
HOURS*: 11h-19h, every day except Tuesday.
*Show up until February 3d or February 19th.
Our guess is as good as yours (i.e., welcome to Lisbon!).
ENTRY: 2,50€ for students, 5€ for adults, 9€ for the whole museum + the exhibit.
For a museum, the MAAT in Alcântara has a unique history. Come discover why in this weekly guided tour* described by its organizers like this:
“At a time when we no longer live without electricity, come to know the factory that lit Lisbon – Central Tejo! Surprise yourself with a unique space that combines the past and present of energy production, and get to know more about energy phenomena and the environmental challenges in this interactive visit!”
Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, at 15h; tickets and exact dates here.
ENTRY: 7€.
Teatro Thalia is a small but historically significant Portuguese theater that dates back three centuries. It has been sold, bought, and restored many a time, including by Spaniards, who happen to not be fans of the Portuguese.
Therefore, throughout its existence, it has united many a side, sense, and desire, housing, for example, lions, tigers, panthers, a navy museum, and, more recently, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education.
This weekend, in this spirit, the theater hosts a multimedia art exhibit, Reverso (“Reverse”). Here’s how the organizers describe that:
“Reverso.
The opposite of what you see, a whispery invitation: hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side. Between light and dark, to reverse is to discover the hidden matter that separates and unites sides, senses, desires.
It is to exercise the muscle of stubbornness, to exchange the said for the unsaid, with the feeling free and unpunished. Reverse is the place where opposites smell, touch, and finally exchange, in search of new truths, new versions. After all, who defines which side is right?
To invent the reverse is to dig the back of what one reads, to create the image of the word, the word of the image. Imagine worlds like dancing in silence. Reverse is weaving, with the rebel line that spins and unravels, the reverse of poetry.”
Illustrations by Alice Prestes.
Poetry by Luciana Soares.
Curated by Patrica Ferreira.
HOURS: 9h-20h, through Jan 6 (closed Sunday).
INAUGURATION: Saturday, Jan 4, 15h-19h.
FREE ENTRY.
One thing that makes Lisbon breathtakingly sexy, aside from her personality, of course, is her sultry curves.
And photographer Olivier Perrin seems to agree.
Olivier has been living in Lisbon since 2004, and here’s how he describes his work:
“Photography has always been part of my daily life.
I have always been particularly interested in humans in their everyday environment, but also in the geometric space in which they evolve.
Lisbon lends itself perfectly to this approach.”
His latest solo project is entitled “Lisbon – Through the Curves of the City.” Lisbon Gallery Loja is hosting it through mid-January.
Go show some love.
GALLERY HOURS:
Mon – Fri, 09h30 – 18h30.

“Urucum” is the Portuguese word for annatto.

You’re welcome.
Urucum.com describe this art exhibit simply:
“Digital Art, Indigenous Art, Textile Art, Modern Art, Printed Art, Unconscious Art, Photographic Art, Contemporary Art, Folk Art…

“All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?”
Banksy.
Cathy Douzil is an artist and teacher who was born in Paris and now lives in Lisbon.
Cathy likes to draw, and she’s not bad.
For that reason, she doesn’t mind teaching you.
Here’s what she says about her workshops:
“Throughout the year, session after session, we will try to solve the mystery of moving a three-dimensional figure to our sheet of paper, capturing the essentials of the human figure (dynamics, movement, and shadow). Sessions will be at two speeds: calm every Tuesday and fast every Wednesday.”
The workshops are open to anyone 15 years or older, with no experience necessary.
PRICING:
-7€ per session all month at two speeds;
-8€ per session all month at one speed;
-10€ per single session (paid in cash at the Museum reception before 18h).
*Alternatively, monthly payments can be made via bank transfer, at least 48 hours in advance; please ask for bank details upon registration.
MATERIALS:
The material is included (board, sheets, and pencil) but limited to the first 18 students enrolled.
You will be able to participate beyond this limit with your own material.
Every Tuesday and Wednesday (except holidays), 18h-19h30, until June 24th, 2020.
Registrations via email [email protected].
Did we mention there will be naked people?
Are you a struggling videographer, artist, and/or filmmaker who wants nothing more than to have their images looped in a dingy little ungentrified after-hours hotspot in the heart of this great city?
If so, you’re in luck.
We’ll let the organizers take it from here:
“Year-round Open Call.
LOOPCAVE is a video art showcase dedicated to the loop organized in the Desterro‘s cave, in Lisbon. Fortnightly, with the purpose of opening the most diverse windows for the culture of the new artistic media, selected videos will be displayed via a monthly open call. The open calls are open every month until the end of the year, and two pieces are selected each month.
All videos must be submitted via email with the following info:
– name of the artist;
– small bio of the artist;
– link to the video;
– short description of the video (title, time, format and credits).”

Big players like Brad Downey, Gabriel Orozco, and Ana Vieira are joined by over a dozen lesser-known but equally significant local and international players who, in the words of the organizers, “adopt the theme exploring new ways of seeing, to participate and transform the world, using the game critically.”
HOURS*: 11h-19h, every day except Tuesday.
*Show up until February 3d or February 19th.
Our guess is as good as yours (i.e., welcome to Lisbon!).
ENTRY: 2,50€ for students, 5€ for adults, 9€ for the whole museum + the exhibit.
One thing that makes Lisbon breathtakingly sexy, aside from her personality, of course, is her sultry curves.
And photographer Olivier Perrin seems to agree.
Olivier has been living in Lisbon since 2004, and here’s how he describes his work:
“Photography has always been part of my daily life.
I have always been particularly interested in humans in their everyday environment, but also in the geometric space in which they evolve.
Lisbon lends itself perfectly to this approach.”
His latest solo project is entitled “Lisbon – Through the Curves of the City.” Lisbon Gallery Loja is hosting it through mid-January.
Go show some love.
GALLERY HOURS:
Mon – Fri, 09h30 – 18h30.
Show up until Jan 16.
FREE ENTRY.
“All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?”
Banksy.
Cathy Douzil is an artist and teacher who was born in Paris and now lives in Lisbon.
Cathy likes to draw, and she’s not bad.
For that reason, she doesn’t mind teaching you.
Here’s what she says about her workshops:
“Throughout the year, session after session, we will try to solve the mystery of moving a three-dimensional figure to our sheet of paper, capturing the essentials of the human figure (dynamics, movement, and shadow). Sessions will be at two speeds: calm every Tuesday and fast every Wednesday.”
The workshops are open to anyone 15 years or older, with no experience necessary.
PRICING:
-7€ per session all month at two speeds;
-8€ per session all month at one speed;
-10€ per single session (paid in cash at the Museum reception before 18h).
*Alternatively, monthly payments can be made via bank transfer, at least 48 hours in advance; please ask for bank details upon registration.
MATERIALS:
The material is included (board, sheets, and pencil) but limited to the first 18 students enrolled.
You will be able to participate beyond this limit with your own material.
Every Tuesday and Wednesday (except holidays), 18h-19h30, until June 24th, 2020.
Registrations via email [email protected].
Did we mention there will be naked people?
