About the space

The building forms part of an urban complex in Belém, with an industrial character, dating back to the 19th century, and where the studios of visual artists such as Lagoa Henriques, Maria Helena Matos, António Cândido dos Reis and Carlos Amado, would later operate. The gallery opened to the public in 2015. Despite taking on a vocation for dialogue and questioning Portugal’s post-colonial inheritance and memory, it is a space where a multidisciplinary approach is taken, exploring a wide range of themes in the field of contemporary arts.
