VADE RETRO!

Diabos, Diabretos, Mafarricos e Caretos

Devils, goblins, imps and other diabolical creatures are omnipresent figures in the portuguese popular culture, especially in the regions of Minho and Trás-os-Montes, where the devil appears frequently in the daily life, assuming the most diverse faces.
With this exhibition at Cruzes Canhoto, we intend to show a part of this underworld, by presenting a set of drawings, paintings and sculptures of various popular and outsider artists, and hence revealing the multiplicity of interpretations and derivations of the figure of the devil.

António Ramalho, Carolina André, Chico de Barcelos, Daniel Gonçalves, EME, Emília Esteves, Fernando Tiza, Germano Macedo, Idalécio, Inácio da Paula, João Ferreira, João Manuel Esteves, Joaquim Paiva, José Vaz, Júlia Côta, Júlia Ramalho, Luís Filipe Costa, Maria dos Anjos, Mistério, Nelson Oliveira, Óscar Barros, Pedro D’Oliveira, Pedro Nogueira, Porfírio Mendes, Rosa Ramalho, Sarah, Tó Alves, Tozé Vale
