This week we recall the temporary exhibitions, these being projects where ideas, knowledge and sensibilities cross over and, through a creative process, construct new speeches and interpretations, as well as develop renewed readings and ways of presenting the Museum's collections.

In this sense, we highlight the Temporary Exhibition: "Um Olhar do Porto: Uma Coleção de Artes Decorativas”, an exhibition whose design and coordination is assigned to Francisco António Clode Sousa and Teresa Azeredo Pais.

From November 2005 to February 2006, the Quinta das Cruzes Museum presented the temporary exhibition “Um Olhar do Porto”, consisting of pieces from a private collection in Oporto, a collection of decorative arts that encompassed a variety of exotic and rare testimonies, ranging from Chinese porcelain, Luso-Oriental art from India, Ceylon, China and Japan, as well as Portuguese jewellery and furniture nuclei, mostly from the 18th century.

This temporary exhibition was marked by the relationship established with the Museum's permanent collection in an exhibitive dialogue between both collections, representing the universe of decorative arts, the influence of other cultures and, mainly, the importance of collecting as well as of private collections in the origin of areas for cultural enjoyment, such as the Quinta das Cruzes Museum.

The historical and artistic value shown in this Exhibition was recognized by different audiences, who throughout the period of the exhibition, visited the Museum and came into contact with the collection in different ways, either through guided or informal visits, or through the catalog and leaflet prepared for this event.

"Um Olhar do Porto" was part of the cycle of conferences “Encontros – Portugal e o Mundo da Expansão – O Arquipélago da Madeira como primeira experiência Atlântica” (Encounters - Portugal and the World of Expansion - The Archipelago of Madeira as the first Atlantic experience) promoted by the Amigos do Oriente Association, and sponsored by the 500th Anniversary of the City of Funchal Commemorations Committee.
