Pires Vieira (Porto, 1950) studied at the National School of Fine Arts in Paris and at the University of Paris VIII in the early 1970s and lives and works in Estoril. He exhibited individually on around 45 occasions and participated in around 75 group exhibitions.
In addition to his work as a visual artist, he collaborates in the editorial production of several works linked to contemporary art collecting and curated, in co-authorship with Lúcia Marques, the exhibition ‘Outras Zonas de Contacto’ at the Pavilhão Preto of the Museu da Cidade and at the Carmona e Costa Foundation. He is represented in numerous collections such as: CAM-Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian, MNAC/Chiado, Culturgest/CGD, Colecção/Museu Berardo, Fundação/Museu de Serralves. The artworks presented by Pires Vieira create a space of uncertainty and reflection, where the viewer is prompted to reconsider their own interpretations of painting and its hibridations. The work is thus fluid and relational, with the boundaries between different artistic forms constantly in dialogue and negotiation.
