About Alexandre Dias Ramos

With a long experience of management and strategy in the cultural area, I use my knowledge to combine publishing and the arts, taking into account the purpose and the audience of each project.I directed the Zouk Books for 14 years, one of the best publishing companies specialized in Art and Sociology in Brazil, which also involved a cultural centre. I administrated not only the publishing company, but also an art gallery, three bookstores, a coffee shop and rooms for courses and seminars (http://issuu.com/alexandrediasramos/docs/miolo_zouk_1-63). As an editor, I worked directly in the creation of more than 120 books, some of them awarded by the Sao Paulo Biennial Foundation, ABCA Award, Açorianos Award, Fumproarte e Funarte. I organized the "On the Work of the Curator", which is the first book about curating in Brazil, and I wrote the book "Media and Art: contemporary views".My academical research (Masters, PhD, and postdoc) focused on the relationship between the exhibition space and its audience, on the perception and values (visible and invisible) involved in the appreciation of the artwork.

Alexandre Dias Ramos Work Experience Details
  • Universidade De Lisboa
    Postdoctoral Researcher
    Universidade De Lisboa Nov 2022 - Present
    Lisboa, Portugal
    The publication of an art catalogue plays a fundamental role in the “existence” of the exhibition itself. Besides the obvious institutional and social benefits involved in the preproduction of a catalogue, its production constructs, first and foremost, the imaginary view of a place that still does not exit. Then, during the coexistence of both — physical and printed — places, the catalogue strengthens the importance of the pieces and the work done by the curators. In visual arts, it is the main tool of prestige and, in essence, the proof of its “place” in the field.After the exhibition is over, only the catalogue remains, along with the photographic record of the space, now empty, which contained that exhibition. So finally, as in a magic trick, the catalogue is no longer a project or a mere printed paper, but the exhibition “itself”.
