Miguel Nabinho
Galeria Miguel Nabinho began in 2000 as a pioneering project in Portugal. Its exhibitions were held in spaces chosen by the artists themselves, so the gallery space (which was not fixed) would be the most suitable place for the works exhibited. It is one of the most prestigious galleries in Portugal and represents some of the most important, influential and valuable Portuguese artists of the last 40 years, such as Cabrita, Ana Jotta, Luisa Cunha, Eduardo Batarda, Rui Sanches, etc.
Among the artists to be enjoyed at ARCO are Pedro Cabrita, Pedro Calapez, Patrícia Garrido, Rui Sanches and Ana Jotta.

The gallery works with rigour and coherence in its proposal, where colour, imperfection, light, emptiness and balance coexist.
