Sara & André

Portugal, 1980 e 1979
Sara & André studied Set and Costume Design at the Superior School of Theater and Cinema of Lisbon and Visual Arts at the School of Fine Arts and Design of Caldas das Rainha, respectively. They have been exhibiting regularly since 2006. In their artistic practice, they use different mediums such as photography, performance and video. The work developed by the artists explores issues related to the authorship, appropriation, legitimization and recognition of the work of art. The reinterpretation of the notions of work or artist is a constant in their production, which often tests, in an ironic and critical tone, the elasticity of the frontiers of contemporary art. Following the exhibition cycle Curated Curators at Zaratan – Arte Contemporânea in 2017, of which they were curators, they edited the book Uma Breve História da Curadoria [A Brief History of Curatorship] (Documenta, Lisbon, 2019).
