‘Heroínas das Artes’ [Heroines of the Arts] is a collection of books for all those who believe that heroines exist. Based on the modern and contemporary art collection of CAM – Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian, we will tell stories about brave, adventurous, daring and fearless women who, through art, transform our world. 

Maria Helena lived in the city of the arts. She painted the poetry of the streets, the mist, the spaces and the memory. The things only she could see. She drew and travelled along as many lines as those of a labyrinth. And her art reached the entire world. (In fact, even other planets!)
