The MOVART project was born in 2015 by the hand of Janire Bilbao, with the purpose of promoting experimental and itinerant exhibitions, in and around the city of Luanda. In 2017, it was installed in a permanent space on the Luanda Marginal.
MOVART’s mission is to ensure that the world gets to know contemporary art that is produced in countries on the African continent and by artists from the African and Portuguese-speaking diasporas. The gallery represents IHOSVANNY, KEYEZUA, KWAME SOUSA, MÁRIO MACILAU, RITA GT and THÓ SIMOES, develops projects and regular collaborations with other artists.
At the end of 2020, MOVART opens a new space in Lisbon and develops a program that aims to articulate the two galleries and continents. MOVART Luanda is now focused on artistic residency projects and talent discovery and MOVART Lisboa is dedicated to promoting exhibition projects that allow new names to be presented and support the internationalisation of the gallery’s program.
