In 2021, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation launched a digital catalogue listing the c. 1,400 exhibitions held by the institution since 1957. The catalogue documents the process of preparation for the exhibitions, including press releases, information on the key figures involved, images of the events and many other associated documents.
In this session, we present the latest version of the project, which relates to the years 2018, 2019 and 2020. Part of the programme of parallel events related to the exhibition Histories of a Collection. Modern and Contemporary Art from the CAM, this event invites two guests to share their thoughts: Marta Soares, researcher at the Institute of Art History of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, and Nuno Faria, programmer and curator.
The event will also include the presentation of the digital publication O Tempo no Espaço. Exposições da Coleção do CAM 1983-2023 [Time in Space. Exhibitions of the CAM Collection 1983-2023], by Leonor Nazaré, which focuses on the various displays of the CAM collection from its opening to the present day, around 70 in total, interwoven with museological reflections on the context and how they fulfilled the CAM mission.
