Gallery sights in Lisbon

  1. A

    Mãe d’água

    The king laid the aqueduct’s final stone at Mãe d’Água, the city’s massive, 5500-cu-metre main reservoir. Completed in 1834, the reservoir’s cool, echoing chamber (check out the start of the narrow aqueduct passage) now hosts art exhibitions.

  2. B

    Articula

    This anticonformist gallery-cum-workshop displays Teresa Milheiro’s rebellious, recycled creations made from bones, medical tubes and aluminium. Look out for doll’s-eye necklace ‘Big Brother is watching you’ and syringe chain ‘be botox, be beautiful’.
