schema:abstract ""Rui Chafes (Lisbon, 1966) and the Serralves Museum present Arriving without leaving, a major exhibition which extends from the interior of the building to the museum grounds, engaging in an unprecedented intervention upon the surrounding parklands, which simultaneously serve as an inspired setting for a reflection upon the sheer diversity of his sculptural practice. Curated by Philippe Vergne and Inês Grosso, in close collaboration with the artist, the show spans more than three decades’ work and is an opportunity to enjoy some bright highlights in the career of one of today’s most relevant sculptors. With a theoretical and conceptual framework founded on fundamental premises of the late gothic and German Romanticism, enriched by the timeless legacies of Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968), the American post-minimalists and distinguished names such as Joseph Beuys (1921–1986), Chafes is known for his exceptional rigour and consistency, to create a range of enigmatic and mysterious objects which, to paraphrase the artist, are shadowy negative images of a world which confine and imprison the void, and silence at its most absolute: cocoons, nests, insect-like forms, armour, masks or items of clothing simultaneously represent a memory and an outer skin that offers protection and is a testament to an absent body."-- Provided by publisher."@en
""The exhibition is accompanied by a publication consisting of two volumes, the first of which, features texts written by the exhibition curators and especially commissioned contributions by authors who have been following the artist’s career over the last few decades: Armin Zweite, Doris von Drathen, Maria FilomenaMolder, Nuno Crespo, and Ulrich Loock. Furthermore, it includes a previously unpublished photographic essay which shows us, through the eyes of designer Pedro Falcão, images of the artist’s studio and his working methods. The second volume, scheduled to be launched in September, will offer a vast array of images from the exhibition and of the works themselves, immersing the reader in the Museum and its surroundings."-- Provided by publisher."@en
