Fórum Eugénio de Almeida, Évora, Portugal

The new Fórum Eugénio de Almeida in Evora, Portugal will be inaugurated on July 11 at 18:30.
Fórum Eugénio de Almeida is a space designed for the promotion of artistic and cultural actions, with a particular focus on contemporary art, performance projects and educational programmes.
‘Portas Abertas/Open Doors’ is an international participatory artistic project which marks the beginning of the cultural and artistic activities of Fórum Eugénio de Almeida, underlining the importance of participation, cooperation and transterritoriality in contemporary artistic creation. Works by artists from 60 countries will be on display, using exactly the same media and dimensions, in a universal discourse without frontiers.
Portas Abertas is the result of an invitation to artists worldwide to present a work that reflected their vision of the dichotomy between the historical context of the space where it is presented and the current world. Based on concepts of space-network, dialogue, decentralization, interculturality and inclusion, Portas Abertas embodies the philosophy and principles of this new venue for artistic and cultural expression as a contribution to a more cohesive and plural society.
