Portuguese contemporary artist Leonor Antunes has created a new large-scale “floor sculpture” for the reopening of CAM Lisbon’s Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian, which was redesigned by Kengo Kuma & Associates. Antunes' work is inspired by the overlooked contributions of British Modernist architect and designer Sadie Speight, who played a key role in CAM’s original building, designed by Sir Leslie Martin in 1983. This book delves into Antunes’s research on Speight, offering a feminist reading of her work within the context of Modernism. It includes texts by curator Rita Fabiana and authors Connie Butler, Julia Bryan-Wilson, and Taisa Palhares, along with works by Portuguese women artists such as Helena Almeida and Maria Helena Vieira da Silva from CAM’s collection.
