Isaque Pinheiro

PRESENÇA

Isaque Pinheiro (1972). He lives and works in Porto, Portugal. From his artistic practice, we can mention that he is an artist who explores different media, revealing a continuous restlessness where classical and contemporary issues related to the artist’s workshop practice intersect, and an intense critical reflection on what he is presenting to us, assisted by a technical mastery, uncommon these days. Evident, for example, in the exhibitions he has presented of sculpture, particularly in stone.
He is one of the co-founders of Maus Hábitos – Artistic Intervention Space in 2001, and co-founder of Saco Azul – Associação Cultural na Cidade do Porto in 2006.
Isaque Pinheiro has shown his work in several art galleries, museums and biennials, including the Stenersen Museum (Oslo, Norway), Centro Galego de Arte contemporary em Compostela (CGAC) (Spain), Caixa Cultural do Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Paço Imperial (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Soares dos Reis Museum (Porto, Portugal), Amadeu de Sousa Cardoso Museum (Amarante, Portugal).
His work is represented in the Collections of the PLMJ Foundation (Lisbon), EDP Foundation | MAAT (Lisbon), Amadeu de Sousa Cardoso Museum (Amarante), MG Collection (Alvito), Cerveira Biennial Museum, Galician Center for Contemporary Art (Santiago de Compostela), Caixanova Foundation (Spain), and Edson Queiroz Foundation (Fortaleza, Brazil), and also in several private collections in several countries.
