2109 Lançamento de Edição Limitada “Lightless”

The official launch of the new limited edition Lightless by Sara Bichão, published by the Serralves Foundation, will take place on Saturday, September 21, at 5:30 p.m., at the MAC/CCB Museum Auditorium in Lisbon. The session will be presented by the artist, Sara Bichão, and Inês Grosso, chief curator of the Museum of Contemporary Art of the Serralves Foundation and author of the accompanying text, as they gather for a special conversation.

Lightless accompanies the exhibition of the same name, on display at the Serralves Museum until November. The show brings together a group of works produced during a series of residencies held over more than a year at the Serralves Foundation. With the support of the Museum and Park teams, Sara Bichão transformed a small room located at the Serralves Park's Quinta into a studio. In this space, the artist adapted to the institution's unique environment and the seasonal changes that deeply affect our daily lives and our relationship with the surrounding nature.


The edition consists of 200 numbered copies, with design by Dayana Lucas and a text by Inês Grosso.

 

Each book features a unique cover intervention, signed by the artist.


This launch is part of the Lab Lisbon Art Book Fair programme, which is positioned as an event dedicated to the ecosystem of art books and publications, with a special focus on the production of the artist's book


Free entry, subject to ticket availability on the day, at the MAC/CCB Museum ticket office, up to 30 minutes before the event. The ticket also grants access to the museum's other exhibition areas.
