Brief Introduction This ticket gives access to all the museum's exhibitions and spaces, including the MAAT Gallery, MAAT Central and the MAAT Garden. Inaugurated in October 2016 in the context of the cultural patronage policy long championed by the EDP Foundation, MAAT — the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology — is an international institution dedicated to promoting critical discourse and creative practice in order to spark new understandings of the historical present and of a responsible commitment to the future. Located on the riverfront of the historic Belém district of Lisbon, MAAT comprises a thermal power station built in 1908, MAAT Central, and a contemporary building, MAAT Gallery, linked by a garden stretching along the River Tagus, the MAAT Garden. In addition to its programme of temporary exhibitions and activities (Agenda), the museum also houses permanent exhibitions, such as A Fábrica da Eletricidade in the Central, or the sculptures in the outdoor spaces. Drawing on the many layers of history preserved in its cultural and artistic heritage, MAAT advocates a concept of the museum as a catalysing platform for turning discourse into action and for empowering the public in the exercise of its power of choice through debate, the sharing of positions and the formulation of knowledge. With the aim of encouraging an open and transformative relationship between cultural institutions and social change, the museum simultaneously seeks to question and celebrate the intellectual ambitions and creative means through which we imagine (with art), inhabit (with architecture) and create (with technology) the world we live in — that is, the ways in which we constantly redefine our collective commitment to the planetary ecosystem to which we belong.
