In partnership with ModaLisboa, we present a programme based on the points of intersection between visual arts and fashion, disciplines that provoke and stimulate one another in the construction of a collaborative future. At the heart of each of these ‘Dialogues’, we find creative thought and process.

These encounters are built around shared concepts and practices through which to interpret the real, and to experiment and investigate unexplored paths that lead to the production of the ‘new,’ or to another vision of the present and the ‘other’.

The term ‘dialogues’ evokes an idea of empathy between people in conversation, an openness to listening and communication that also extends to the audience. Those watching are invited to participate and reflect on these artistic practices, the conceptual divisions and intersections, and the impact of materiality on the construction of new cultural narratives.

As part of the 64th Lisbon Fashion Week programme, the Dialogues programme consists of a series of conversations between artists and fashion designers. Based on their creative processes, these gatherings explore the areas of intersection between the visual arts and fashion.

This conversation will occur in Portuguese without simultaneous translation.
