Published as part of the celebrations marking the 70th anniversary of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, this publication symbolically presents 70 works of art from the collection assembled by its founder. Seventy Years, Seventy Works also marks the reopening of the Gulbenkian Museum following its closure for refurbishment. The renovation project set out to evoke the spirit and coherence of the original design, re-establishing the relationship between architecture, art and nature. The selection of works chosen by the Museum's curators is representative of the collection's excellence and diversity, reflecting Calouste Gulbenkian's refined taste. Following the path of the permanent exhibition, the works presented here span multiple periods and geographical regions, ranging from Antiquity and originating from Asia and Europe. This book, designed by Panorama Design Studio, is illustrated with a wide selection of images and accompanied by texts written by the museum curatorial team.
