THE PORTUGUESE COLLECTION BY KATE TOLEDO
2
WHERE? PROART Gallery, Dubai
WHEN? November 1
Dubai based artist Kate Toledo launches her fourth solo exhibition, entitled "The
Portuguese Collection," a retrospective on Portuguese history through modern travels.
The pieces showcase Toledo’s musings and inspiration, realised from over a dozen canvas
works, and her signature three silk scarves. The artist pays tribute to Seventeeth and
Eighteenth century ceramic works, with inspiration from Portuguese tile work on religious
and public buildings, and intricate patterns. The series took over three years to complete,
and is, in part, inspired by Reinado Wanili – one of the few documented faiança artists.
