Graça Morais is the catalogue of the exhibitions “All Around Me”, held in 1992 at Kimberly Gallery in Washington and Scott Allen Gallery in New York City. Entirely written in English, it offers an important record of Graça Morais’s international presence at the beginning of the 1990s and is especially appealing to readers, collectors and researchers interested in Portuguese contemporary art abroad.
The book includes an introductory essay by Ruth Rosengarten, a short biography, a photograph of the artist, colour reproductions of the works shown and lists of solo and group exhibitions. Compact but carefully produced, it gives direct access to the visual world of Graça Morais: rural memory, expressive faces, female figures, animals, transformation and the emotional intensity of landscape and human experience.
Graça Morais, born in 1948, in Trás-os-Montes, Northern Portugal hinterland, trained in Painting at the Escola Superior de Belas-Artes do Porto and is widely regarded as one of Portugal’s major contemporary artists. Her work has been shown in Portugal and internationally and is represented in important public and private collections.
A scarce English-language catalogue, in very good condition, ideal for collectors of Portuguese art books and for anyone wishing to discover Graça Morais beyond the Portuguese context.
