The Switch is pleased to present ‘Cabinet of Curiosities’, a group exhibition on view during ARCOLisboa2019, bringing together a broad range of works by Artists from the gallery’s program. The presented works point out the Artist-run gallery’s vocation to showcase Young Talents and Emerging Artists, with its continuous approach towards promoting collaboration across various creative industries. Different kind of art. Born through diverse practices. Originating from multiple backgrounds, from the intersection of cultures between contemporary art, fashion, music, urban and subcultural conducts.

"Interesting times. Times where they blur the boundaries. There’s no limit. For them. No segmentation. This group of Dreamers, outliers, outcasts are moving forward without regards for the Art world’s hierarchy nor the status quo. These Artists, creators, messengers, alchemists, are part of this new breed. Not writers. Not painters. Not sculptors. Not poets. Not thinkers nor forces of nature. Not travellers. But all of the above. Because they know IT."

Standing by its Artist-run gallery stigma, The Switch strives to give the Artists the opportunity of presenting their works in the up & rising Portuguese capital, outlining the role and position of Artists at the outskirt of a new era.

Aires de Gameiro, Skoya Assemat-Tessandier, Maria Jose Cabral, Hugo Cantegrel, Catia Castel-Branco, Rita Castel-Branco, Cintia Coutinho, Anzhelika Ishkova, Basile Jeandin, Divine Southgate-Smith, Manuel Tainha
