MAAT's program for adult and senior audiences, with online and in-person sessions, to discuss contemporary art themes.

Full details

Brief Introduction MAATuridades is a program dedicated to an adult and senior audience, where contemporary themes will be presented through artistic discourses addressed in the museum's exhibition program. In an open dialogue between different generations and life experiences, the sessions (theoretical online) and theoretical-practical (in person at the museum) function as meeting points for debate on questioning the world around us. We know how contemporary art languages sometimes bring barriers to the public, just as we know that in no other phase of art history has spectator participation been so appealed to. The challenge is great and the dialogue fruitful. The sessions are online and in person, divided monthly between two spaces, one via Zoom and the other at the museum. Each season there will be an open session in partnership with the Belém Library, Lisbon Library network. Program Objectives To bring the adult and senior public closer to contemporary art discourse. To provide tools for decoding the discourse of current artists. To foster the meeting point between discourses, languages, and narratives that the museum promotes and which is its action par excellence. To open dialogue between individual and generational life experience with historical, critical, and curatorial perspectives on a path of collective knowledge construction. Additional Information Target audience: active and curious people +60 years Max capacity: 25 people Duration: 90 minutes per session Price: €45 per season (25% discount for MAAT Friends) 2026 Seasons 1st season (February to May) Portuguese Art and International Contemporaneity While in the first half of the 20th century artistic avant-gardes emerged and prospered beyond borders, they arrived timidly to a Portugal under dictatorship, with all the cultural delays that ensued. It is with the 1974 Revolution that the national artistic panorama begins to follow rhythms and experiments, where Portuguese artists exhibit and discourse in different international contexts. Thus, within Contemporary Art, through nuclei of the EDP Foundation Art Collection, we will frame important artists of our country with interests and artistic manifestations that began to be felt in a more global and intercultural breath. It is also important to understand breaths and poetics from other geographies as we will do, starting from Anna Maria Maiolino and allowing ourselves current views on the relationship of Portuguese art with post-colonialism. 07/02/2026, 10:30, Open session: Meeting at the Museum (Registration for ). 09/02/2026, 15:30, Online session 23/02/2026, 15:30, Online session 09/03/2026, 15:30, Online session 14/03/2026, 10:30, Meeting at the museum 23/03/2026, 15:30, Online session 28/03/2026, 10:30, Meeting at the museum 06/04/2026, 15:30, Online session 20/04/2026, 15:30, Online session 09/05/2026, 10:30, Meeting at the museum 2nd season (May to June) Art is a Fluid Dance.

Breve Introdução MAATuridades é um programa dedicado a um público adulto e sénior, onde temas da contemporaneidade serão apresentados através de discursos artísticos abordados na programação expositiva do museu. Num diálogo aberto, entre diferentes gerações e experiências de vida, as sessões (teóricas online) e teórico-práticas (presenciais no museu) funcionam como pontos de encontro para o debate sobre o questionamento do mundo que nos rodeia. Sabemos como as linguagens da arte contemporânea trazem por vezes barreiras ao público, assim como sabemos que em nenhuma outra fase da história da arte se apelou tanto à participação do espetador. O desafio é grande e o diálogo profícuo. As sessões são online e presenciais, divididas mensalmente entre dois espaços, um via Zoom e outro no museu. A cada temporada haverá uma sessão aberta em parceria com a Biblioteca de Belém, rede de Biblioteca de Lisboa. Objetivos do programa Aproximar o público adulto e sénior do discurso da arte contemporânea. Fornecer ferramentas de possibilidades de descodificação do discurso dos artistas atuais. Fomentar o ponto de encontro entre discursos, linguagens e narrativas que o museu promove e que é a sua ação por excelência. Abrir o diálogo entre a experiência de vida individual e geracional com as perspetivas históricas, críticas e curatoriais num caminho de construção de saber coletivo. Informações Adicionais Público-alvo: pessoas ativas e curiosas + 60 anos Lotação máx: 25 pessoas Duração: 90 minutos por sessão Preço: 45€ por temporada (25% desconto para MAAT Friends) Temporadas 2026 1ª temporada ( fevereiro a maio ) A Arte Portuguesa e a Contemporaneidade Internacional Enquanto na primeira metade do século XX as vanguardas artísticas surgiam e prosperavam além-fronteiras, chegavam tímidas a um Portugal em ditadura, com todos os atrasos culturais que daí advêm. É com a Revolução de 1974 que o panorama artístico nacional começa a acompanhar ritmos e experimentações, onde os artistas portugueses expõe e discursam em diferentes contextos internacionais. Assim, é no âmbito da Arte Contemporânea, que, através de núcleos da Coleção de Arte Fundação EDP, iremos enquadrar importantes artistas do nosso país com interesses e manifestações artísticas que se começaram a sentir num folego mais global e intercultural. Importa também entender fôlegos e poéticas de outras geografias como iremos fazer, a partir da Anna Maria Maiolino e permitirmo-nos a olhares atuais sobre a relação da arte portuguesa com o pós-colonialismo. 07/02/2026, 10:30 , Sessão aberta: Encontro no Museu (Inscrições para ). 09/02/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 23/02/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 09/03/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 14/03/2026, 10:30 , Encontro no museu 23/03/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 28/03/2026, 10:30 , Encontro no museu 06/04/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 20/04/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 09/05/2026, 10:30 , Encontro no museu 2ª temporada ( maio a junho) A Arte é uma Dança Fluída. Goethe dizia que “Arquitetura é Música Petrificada”. Na Arte Contemporânea, as noções de perene deram lugar ao efémero e a petrificação deu lugar à fluidez. Em momento de contaminações de disciplinas, tecnologias, tempos… o som dita-nos pluralidades de ritmos e geografias, trazendo-nos a possibilidade de uma dança a vários corpos e em vários espaços em simultâneo. A partir das provocações sonoras e visuais de artistas como Christian Marclay e Paulo Furtado, iremos viajar em experiências artísticas onde a música assume um papel de narrador e provocar o espetador a bailes inusitados, entre o erudito e o popular, o experimental e o reconhecível. 16/05/2026, 10:30 , Sessão aberta: Encontro no Museu (Inscrições para ) 18/05/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 30/05/2026, 10:30 , Encontro no museu 01/06/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 15/06/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 27/06/2026, 10:30 , Encontro no museu 29/06/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 07/09/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 21/09/2026, 15:30 , Sessão online 26/09/2026, 10:30 , E
