Serralves Collection, "Ana Jotta Collection" and Guests Partner: Porto Municipal Council - Porto Lazer Ana Jotta (Lisbon, 1946), who had a major retrospective exhibition at Serralves Villa in 2005, is one of the artists with the highest number of works in the Serralves Collection. Over the last four decades, she has explored virtually every artistic field - from painting to sculpture, including design, installation and use of techniques associated to the "minor arts" such as embroidery, sewing and pottery – in a constant challenge to any traditional notions of authorship. Jotta is a genuine artist-collector, who constantly appropriates other people’s objects, iconography, phrases and titles. For this reason, this exhibition - which aims to foster dialogue between works from the Serralves Collection and works by other artists represented therein (and even several artists who have been invited to present hitherto unseen works) - can be seen as an encounter between two collections: the Serralves Collection and the "Ana Jotta Collection". In addition to works by Ana Jotta, the exhibition features works by other artists who have collaborated with her, such as Pedro Barateiro, Isabel Carvalho and Pedro Casqueiro - and paintings, films and sound installations by artists who emphasise some of the key features of her artistic practice: obsessive repetition, sophisticated and premeditated amateurism, an intimate relationship with interior decoration and theatre (some of her works resemble props, or copy specific patterns) and the use of sound, in particular the voice. The exhibition is curated by Ricardo Nicolau and Filipa Loureiro.
