“Design, being a discipline that focuses on
form-giving, cannot design life itself as it has no perceivable material
dimension. Instead, designers tend to manipulate the fostering substrate of
living systems to obtain certain outco-mes. Design in this context becomes a
negotiator between the agendas of both humans and non-humans, and requires a
high level of solidarity.
”
Raúl Pinto is a designer and founder of EstúdioAma (http://www.amadesign.net).
He also teaches Industrial Design at the Faculty
of Fine Arts at the University of Izmir, Turkey.

Exhibition "Ruins and Fragments"
From Wednesday, 6.12.2023 to Wednesday, 13.12.2023
Garagem Avenida - Guimarães
The
exhibition will be on display at Garagem Avenida from 6 to
13 December, with opening hours from Wednesday to Friday, from 14h00 to 17h00.
The opening of the exhibition will take place on 6 December at 5pm in the presence
of the curator and the artists. On 13 December, the book "Deindustrialisation,
still" will be presented.
Ruins
and Fragments presents artistic processes and productions developed from
activations at Fábrica do Arquinho, in Guimarães, during the first half of
2023. The curatorial project* aims to understand the narratives that this
industrial ruin and its vestiges contain and provoke, considering its
interstitial condition, between previous industrial use and the future
rehabilitation project. The artists' responses to this enquiry encompass
various languages - objects, performance recordings, audio recordings,
experimental photographs and writing - and are above all a procedural display
of the fieldwork carried out in (and on) this factory. The artistic proposals focus
on recording the entropy of space, experimenting with the heterotopia of this
anti-monumentality and the double gesture of inventing and inventorying,
including, in some cases, decomposition and forgetting as intrinsic elements in
the construction of the works.
*
The exhibition's curatorial research is part of Beatriz Duarte's PhD project in
Art Education (i2ADS-FBAUP), funded by the FCT (ref.2021.04620.BD) and entitled
"Contemporary heritage re-signified: curatorial strategies and artistic
mediation of recent pasts", with scientific guidance from Inês Moreira
(CEAA-ESAP) and Thiago Assis (i2ADS-FBAUP).
