The exposure "The air you breathe…”, the first manifestation of Collective Artadentro, continues in the Municipal Gallery train, in Faro, until January 7th.
The proposals presented are by Ana André, Christine Henry, Miguel Cheta, Paulo Serra, Vasco Célio and Vasco Vidigal, covering the visual disciplines of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography and projection.
«It is an “air” that conditions and limits artistic activity, by favoring a nebulous atmosphere of intertwined interests, from which lack of interest and a happy disregard for the local culture stand out», says Artadentro in a note.
