Images of Fado in Portuguese Art
Dedicated to the presence of Fado in national visual arts, the exhibition proposes an integrated and multidisciplinary reading of the representations of Fado in Portuguese Art from the 19th-21st centuries, bringing together works by José Malhoa – represented here in several studies for the emblematic work O Fado –, Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro, Leonel Marques Pereira, Rafael Bordalo Pinheiro, Almada Negreiros, Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, Eduardo Viana, Domingos Alvarez, Francis Smith, Eduardo Moura, Carlos Reis, Alfredo Roque Gameiro, Raquel Roque Gameiro, Eduardo Malta, Bernardo Marques, Stuart Carvalhais, João Abel Manta, Cândido da Costa Pinto, Leonel Moura, Paula Rego, João Vieira and Júlio Pomar.
Throughout its history, Fado has always known how to assume itself as a field of creativity, openly dialoguing with other arts and other performing genres, popular or erudite.
