Founded in 2011, OLD SCHOOL (OS) is a monthly visual arts project by curator Susana Pomba, housed at Rua das Gaivotas 6. It presents new works by artists (with no age restriction) in a one-off night event.
An ephemeral moment where a work is rehearsed, produced and presented – the artist is invited to revaluate his work, try out new mediums, new collaborations, or investigate and rehash ideas and wishes that had never seen the light of day.
The relationship established between artist and curator, one that aims at being mutual and that installs creative freedom, is inaugurated with a collaborative moment between both parties: the production of the promotional materials of the evening: a blackboard and trailer. In October 2016, the invited artist is Sofia Gonçalves.
