"Por ser a terra muito calmosa" (Because the land is very calm) is a solo exhibition by Rouzbeh Akhbari. It starts from a multifaceted research project entitled "Tales from the Garden of Zãr" and then unfolds in several formal and conceptual layers. 

The exhibition reflects an elaborate framing of the influence of globalisation - and its logical and cultural dimensions - on the re-evaluation of the past, present and future of peoples, nations and cultures; it potentiates the restructuring of theories, narratives and histories. 

The exhibition is curated by Luísa Santos and Fabíola Mauricio and can be visited every day, between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., at the Amélia de Mello Foundation Gallery. 

This exhibition has free entrance. 
 

"¿De qué casa eres? Los niños de Rusia. Episodios de un cotidiano #4" is the most recent exhibition at the Fundação Amélia de Mello Gallery, at the headquarters of the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, in Lisbon.

The exhibition, which is open to the public until 26 May, brings together works by the artist Ana Pérez-Quiroga.

"The autobiographical project, which the artist began in 2016, and to which she is systematically adding new readings and presented here in its fourth part - or, in Ana Pérez-Quiroga’s words, its fourth episode - pays homage to the story of her mother, Ângela Petra," explains the curator, Luísa Santos.

Ângela Petra is one of the children who, during the Spanish Civil War, were sent to the Soviet Union without their families.

Integrated in the program of Cultura@Católica, "¿De qué casa eres?" is sponsored by the Fundação Amélia de Mello, Innovarisk, Caixa Geral de Depósitos, Jopinto, Research Centre for Communication and Culture and Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia.

Visit the exhibition from Monday to Friday, from 2pm to 5pm, at the Fundação Amélia de Mello Gallery.
