Carried over from last year’s events into this year’s edition of the Next Future public art programme are the sunshades designed by the architect Inês Lobo (Lisbon, 1966), which will again be scattered around the garden. However, this year we’ve added a series of images to the initial elegance of these sunshades and to their general appearance of simple and inexpensive manufactured objects. In fact, four artists – Rachel Korman, Bárbara Assis Pacheco, Isaías Correa and Délio Jasse – were invited to take part, being asked to create specific designs for these unusual supports. The designs were later printed and now enliven even more these objects that provide visitors with a most welcome shade.
