Defined by Leonor Antunes (Lisbon, 1972) as ?sculptures created in space?, the work by this leading artist establishes complex relationships between sculpture, architecture, design, light and the body. She dedicates special attention to the materials she uses, which are often natural or organic, and to the effects left on them by time and their use. Antunes is keenly interested in a number of 20th century women artists, architects and designers, which she thoroughly researches and brings in as powerful references in her own works. This is the most comprehensive publication on the artist to date, spanning her entire career.00Exhibition: MASP Museu de Arte São Paulo, Brazil (13.12.2019-14.04.2020) / MUDAM, Luxembourg (10.10.2020-07.03.2021).
