Rui Moreira

Rui Moreira presents his largest museum exhibition and first retrospective, with more than 100 medium and very large format drawings and paintings. He was one of the most significant Portuguese artists to emerge in the first decade of this century (with works in all the national museums of modern and contemporary art) and one with the most consolidated international career (with gallery representation in France, and works in private or institutional collections in Luxembourg, Belgium and Italy).

His work (drawing, photography and sculpture) is based on an obsessive labour with forms and materials, recreating national (Celtic and medieval) and international (North African, Slavic or Japanese) mythologies, mobilising literature, music, performance and pointing to strong realms of spirituality, magic and trance.
