Selected Artworks
Artist Bio
Her work is featured in the following collections: Museu do Chiado, Serralves Foundation, Museu de Arte Contemporânea do Funchal, EDP Foundation, Coleção António Cachola and also the Coleção Banco Privado. She received the Prémio União Latina prize in 2001.From the principles of assemblage, intervened appropriation and abstract construction, the artist creates objects that appeal to the careful reading of their own processes, surprise and intrinsic nature. Isolated or conceived for dialogues in the space, they have the presence and the tactile appeal of sculpture, but also the resourcefulness of drawing and the intriguing challenge of their latent symbolic reference.
Outside of Portugal, Molder's photographs can be seen at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Artothèque in Grenoble, the Everson Museum of Art in Syracusa (New York), the Fonds National d'Art Contemporain and the European House of Photography in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, the Extremadura Ibero-American Museum of Contemporary Art in Badajoz or the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid.

Jorge Molder was born in 1947 in Lisbon.

Molder uses his body to create his works, establishing categories that are based on analogies and relationships, allowing him to form groups and series of images to determine visual and conceptual hierarchies.
In 1977 he held his first solo exhibition. He has a national and international career as a photographer and his creations are part of both private and public collections, such as those of the Caixa Geral de Depositos , the Fundação Luso-Americana para o Desenvolvimento and the Centro of Modern Art José de Azeredo de Perdigão of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.

Well, my point is that art does not develop in a finalistic or systematic form. Chaos, confusion and other types of disorganization fit into it well.
