Exhibited abroad for the first time, the exhibition How to (…) things that don't exist presents 28 artists and collectives at the Museu de Serralves. The exhibition’s exploration of art’s revelatory potential was reconfigured to suit the physical, social and cultural context of Porto, Portugal. In addition to projects from the 31st Bienal, the Serralves presentation also includes additional works by Cildo Meireles belonging to the Serralves collection and a program of debates held on-site.
