Curated by António Saint Silvestre at Oliva Creative Factory in São João da Madeira.

“In and Out of Africa” and others in the mix that prove that skin colour is a meaningless detail, not only in the overall quality but also in the strength of artistic creation. It’s what we will prove with the introduction of this exhibition with works from the Treger/Saint Silvestre Collection.

“In” artists are mainly contemporary, even if they are marked by a certain “outsider” wave; 

“out” artists are mainly from the “Art Brut” world.
