Nuno Sousa Vieira: X-Office for a Sculpture
X-Office for a Sculpture is Kunsthalle Lissabon's first curatorial proposal and it is the direct result of an invitation done to artist Nuno Sousa Vieira to develop a context-responsive project. Departing from the physical space Kunsthalle Lissabon occupies and using an architectural structure already existing there, Sousa Vieira presents a project that recontextualizes the characteristics or properties of that pre-existing structure, operating what can be called an architecural deviation and, by doing so, also reconfiguring and recontextualizing the space that contained the original structure.
Nuno Sousa Vieira was born in Leiria, Portugal in 1971. Having studied Visual Arts at ESTGAD, Caldas da Rainha, he lives and works in Leiria and Lisbon. Sousa Vieira has started his artistic activity in the first half of this decade and some of his solo shows include Chão Morto, Carpe Diem, Lisbon (2009); To Draw An Escape Plan, Galeria Graça Brandão, Lisbon (2009); Redesenhar, Empty Cube, Lisbon (2008); SP(H)É(I), Galeria Graça Brandão, Porto (2006); 1 Hour Later e Impossible Rectilinear Space (m/m# 1/6), CAV, Coimbra (2005).
