Xerazade, a Coleção Interminável do CAM

Helena Almeida

We are pleased to share the opening of Xerazade, a Coleção Interminável do CAM, a group exhibition including works by Helena Almeida at CAM – Gulbenkian, Lisbon.

 

Motivated and guided by Scheherazade, the protagonist of the tales of ‘One Thousand and One Nights’, CAM proposes an exhibition of its Collection that draws inspiration from the fictional device of that ancient anthology.
 

By evoking some significant facets that shape those stories, and organising the exhibition route into fourteen sections, this naturally subjective gaze also seeks to bring the legendary protagonist, Scheherazade, to the present day, removing her from her specific cultural context.  

 

Opening  20 September 2025, Xerazade, a Coleção Interminável do CAM will be on view until 20 September 2026.
