a solo exhibition curated by Caroline Menezes

«(…) Rui Macedo’s art has one clear prerogative: to be unpredictable. It could be argued that all artistic language, at its core, seeks to dazzle and surprise. However, what makes this artist’s visual poetics so genuinely unique is the unexpected that arises from the manipulation of the rules, which are already so familiar and ingrained in our understanding of painting and its conventions.»

Excerpt from the exhibition catalogue essay “A transparência da pintura” by Carolina Menezes, 2013
