In this exhibition, about 80 drawings and paintings on paper, of medium and very large format, and a large sculpture are on display. With a career spanning more than 20 years, Rui Moreira is one of the most significant Portuguese artists of those revealed in the first decade of this century and one of those with the most consolidated international curriculum.

The title chosen by the artist for this exhibition, Trance, reveals the intensity he puts into the making of his works and the energy he intends to transmit through them. These works, of meticulous work and requiring a slow and deep execution time, result from the simultaneous summoning of primordial forces, and erudite quotations, with references to Herberto Helder, Cormac McCarthy or Marcel Proust, in which he seeks inspiration for themes and titles of some of his works.
