The figurative, the mystical and the revolutionary – Works in the Treger Saint Silvester Collection
31 may 2014 — 26 april 2015Curator Richard Treger e António Saint Silvestre
Centro de Arte Oliva
The exhibition Figurativos, místicos e revolucionários – Obras da Coleção Treger Saint Silvestre is an exhibition project by the collector and was based on the fusion of artworks between the ‘figurative revolutions’, fantastic art and voodoo art – universes that make up the art brut collection on loan at Núcleo de Arte da Oliva. The metamorphosis of images in this show appeals to a multiplicity of dimensions in which the viewers perception is perturbed by parallel worlds filled with imaginary creatures, the oneiric and magic as well as the ancestral and ritualistic practices of the voodoo religion and cult. The exhibition features artwork by artists from several countries.
