ARCOlisboa attendees will be able to visit the Altice Foundation stand and get to know its Contemporary Art Collection through the metaverse, in an immersive virtual reality experience.
In March, the Altice Foundation opened its first exhibition space in Lisbon, at the Fórum Picoas.
This is the second consecutive year that the Altice Foundation has supported ARCOlisboa.
Altice Foundation Contemporary Art Collection
Providing access to art and making it easy for everyone to understand has always been one of the pillars of the Altice Foundation. In this sense, as the promotion of national art is also part of the company's strategy, its Foundation has been gathering a Collection of Portuguese Contemporary Art since 1997.
Consisting of around 200 works, the collection includes some of today's most important artists, with works dating from the 1960s onwards. Without thematic limits, the collection includes works of sculpture, painting, installation, drawing, video and engraving. With the aim of offering a comprehensive and questioning view of contemporary Portuguese art, the collection has been regularly presented in municipal museums, foundations and contemporary art centers in Portugal and Europe, and has now arrived at the 6th edition of ARCOlisboa.
