Portugal Lisboa31 - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

About This Presentation
Title:

Portugal Lisboa31

Description:

Lisbon’s long and storied history can be seen in its architecture. And its geography is as distinct as its buildings. Built on seven hills with the river Tagus flowing through its heart, the city is blessed with an unusual light, which reflects off the water onto white tiled streets. Its architecture makes the most of this, with buildings designed around luminosity, shade and shadow and often searching out river views. Joana Vasconcelos (born in Paris 1971) is a Portuguese artist. Her participation in the 2005 edition of the Venice Biennale affirmed her career within the international art circuit with the piece A Noiva (The Bride). She has exhibited extensively, including at the Palace of Versailles in 2012, and at the Venice Biennale in 2013, where she represented Portugal. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
