For the opening of its new building, CAM Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian has invited Leonor Antunes to present a new project that occupies the entirety of its main gallery space.
In two adjacent galleries, Leonor Antunes (b. 1972) brings about an encounter between her work – an installation devised for the entire space of the nave – and the works of around three dozen women artists from the CAM Collection presented on the mezzanine, creating a reciprocal link between her own work and practice and those of these artists.

The exhibition’s title, also the name of a drawing from the Collection by Ana Hatherly, from 1972, the year Leonor Antunes was born, is the most ‘autobiographical’ of her career. Leonor presents a field of reading on the vulnerability of the creative gesture and her own condition as an artist, in what constitutes a return to Lisbon, the city where she was born, for her first solo exhibition at CAM.
