about. Adriana de Carvalho (1980, Portugal) _ Working between architecture, museography, scenography and curatorial studies and performing arts, I'm an architect, a creative producer. Exploring new concepts of each area, all sorts of spatial issues, paths creation, conceptual lines as well as executive project has always been my environment. I aim learn distinct processes and explore communication between different areas. My role are ranged from all related to space, curatorial studies, artwork management, acquisitions, collections records, bio/bibliographic records or files, research for design exhibitions and publications, loans and general curatorial inquiries. Communications management, curious about how to explain and illustrate concepts. Building thoughts. Inside architecture studios like Mauricio Rocha, Taller de Arquitectura (2011-2012) and at Tatiana Bilbao Studio (2007-2011) I worked in the scenography and museography of several exhibitions such as; Mexico, Expected /Unexpected at Maison Rouge Gallery, Paris, France 2008; The Intermittence of the image, Puebla, Mexico 2009; Concrete, steel, brick, aluminum, wood and paint (curated by Patrick Charpenel), San Antonio, USA 2010. This last project articulate, from different points of view, solutions that each Bilbao’s spaces presents. Tacita Dean, Gabriel Orozco, Corey McCorke, Francis Alys, Gordon Matta-Clark, Anri Sala, Damián Ortega and Oliafur Eliasson, were some of the artists exhibited. Consulting, design and production at the studio of the artist Pedro Reys, Mexico City. Head of Exhibitions, until June 2014 at the contemporary art museum La Tallera (Cuernavaca, Mexico), before main office of the mexican muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros. I worked as Country Manager (2015) from the renowned portuguese architecture studio Saraiva+Associados in their startup in Mexico City. This experience gave me confidence, knowledge, and some key points to achieve and make projects and ideas come true. In November 2017, I started to work as exhibition and production manager in Berardo Collection, at Lisbon. Travelling is essential, dance is a way of expression. 'Saudade' a common denominator.
