After brilliantly winning the prestigious Golden Lion award at the 55th edition of the Venice Biennale International Art Exhibition with the Angola Pavilion, Luanda Encyclopedic City, curated by Paula Nascimento and Stefano Rabolli Pansera, A Palazzo Gallery has the honour to announce Edson Chagas’ first solo exhibition in Europe.

Chagas’s solo exhibition provides an answer to this question via a series of hitherto unseen pictures, such as Oikonomos, Tipo Pass and The Last Passenger, which juxtapose the reasoning about the form and how the city is perceived and experienced by the people who live there.
