As Guest Curator CPS, explain to us what was the basis of your choices:

  

"Giving art lovers the possibility of interacting daily with the work of artists of their choice has been one of the merits of the CPS, which over 35 years has been promoting the work of national artists and international, from the most established to new creators.
Choosing a set of works in this pictorial immensity and variety of languages and styles is a challenge that I respond to with difficulty.

And speaking of challenges, I start with Sofia Areal, bold, challenging. I say YES to Sofia the same way she painted it, with conviction. Cruzeiro Seixas, it was impossible for me not to choose it, difficult to choose between so many works that touch me, this one with a particular title: “Group leading the Sea to its definitive place” . Mário Vitória, my dear friend, who masterfully dedicates Cruzeiro Seixas “Hello; Artur, it's me, you and never the same evening”, Maria José; Oliveirawhose work I have been following for a long time. years and always leaves me in contemplation “Spatial Concept”, Gabriel Garcia with a magical universe that has always attracted me, “My empire is in a distant country&rdquo ;, Gracinda Candeias, a long-time friend, an artist with a very unique and coherent path (Série Primaveril), and because whoever is interested in this is the best way to do it? taking the first steps also deserves a highlight, Inês Galvão with the work dedicated to Amália, her first screen print, where I wrote a short text."
