LandArt Cascais 2026
The 12th edition of LandArt Cascais (2026) takes place at Quinta do Pisão, in Cascais, biennially bringing together artistic interventions in profound symbiosis with nature. Curated by Luísa Soares de Oliveira, this edition highlights the visual universes of two major names in contemporary art, whose works challenge the perception of space and the environment:
Pedro Cabrita Reis: A Probable Horizon #8
A white sculpture with striking geometric lines installed in the middle of an open landscape.
The structure materialises as a vanishing point that redraws the horizon line. Its white minimalism establishes a visual dialogue and a direct contrast with the soft, organic contours of the surrounding hills.
This work revisits the landscape genre, a theme the artist obsessively returns to throughout his career in dialogue with Art History. Pedro Cabrita Reis uses three-dimensional drawing to confront the human scale against the immensity of nature.
Susanne S. D. Themlitz: The Listener
An artistic installation located within one of Quinta do Pisão’s historic water tanks. It features a hybrid figure or being holding a fishing rod, its line descending directly into the water.
Faithful to her distinctive style, the Portuguese-German artist transforms a functional element of the estate into an enigmatic and fantastical setting. The presence of the creature blurs the boundaries between the human, the animal, and an imaginary fauna.
Susanne S. D. Themlitz evokes Surrealism, literature, and fictional biology. The static figure “fishing” in the tank slows down time and invites visitors to contemplate the hidden mystery within the forgotten corners of the rural landscape.
