COLOURS2022 paid homage to Almada Negreiros and all contemporary and succeeding generations of artists around the world who combined ancient color traditions with new materials and painting techniques. The event took place last September and it was organized by HERCULES Laboratory and hosted by Évora University.
For 3 days, international researchers from different areas of knowledge discussed colours in their broad perspectives in history, art history, visual arts, archeology, architecture, heritage science and conservation-restoration. The 3-day event was held in a hybrid format, and it was the project largest meeting platform for experts from the Academy, renowned CH Institutions and Museums from the four continents.The fruitful discussions that emerged highlighted the importance of research and opened up new avenues of experimentation.
In addition, the post-pandemic phase provided a much-needed environment for conversations, entertainment, gastronomic experiences, workshops, and an onsite guided tour, all possible thanks to the dedication and hospitality of Milene Gil, organizing committee and sponsors. A special greeting also goes to Rita Almada Negreiros who kindly welcomed everyone to the opening ceremony.
It was a success! Thanks to all participants!
