Horror Vacui
An exhibition comprising exclusively sculptures – anthropomorphic figures from the Treger Saint Silvestre collection: animals, machines, spirits, humans, monsters and angels – opens up a tumultuous landscape, where anarchy and excess act as mechanisms of protection against uncertainty. A significant part of the exhibition represents the philosophical contribution of the Portuguese author Gonçalo M. Tavares.
