curator andreia garcia, who wanted to convey the photographer’s constant state of transit, sourced the exhibition’s content from two decades of work. ‘this is an exhibition that crops parts of the paths of fernando guerra’s twenty-year map, through the objects he collects, as well as the multiple places he introduces to us,’ says garcia. the show, officially titled ‘double exposure: the photography and the photographer’, is presented at roca lisboa gallery, where it remains on view until january 18, 2020.

recent projects photographed by fernando guerra include an all-white house on a spanish island and a hotel by carlos castanheira that negotiates the terrain of coastal portugal. meanwhile, diogo aguiar studio was responsible for the conversion of a disused barn into a winery and the design of a temporary gallery for a roy lichtenstein exhibit. see more architecture in portugal on designboom here.
