Graça Coutinho Pereira
Artist/Designer
Graça Pereira Coutinho presents a solo showcase at Her Clique as part of LDW26 “Spotlight”, bringing together defining works from her artistic trajectory alongside new pieces that signal the evolution of her practice. Known for her exploration of materiality, gesture, and the interplay between structure and spontaneity, Graça moves fluidly between drawing, sculpture, and installation, creating a visual language that is both rigorous and intuitive.
Born in Lisbon, Graça Pereira Coutinho studied Sculpture at ESBAL before moving to London in 1971 to complete a postgraduate program at St. Martins School of Art, where she continues to live and work. Her career includes exhibitions at major institutions such as the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, Serralves Foundation, the Museum of Contemporary Art Osaka, the São Paulo Bienal, MAC Badajoz, and the Museu Histórico Nacional in Rio de Janeiro.
She has collaborated with galleries including Todd Gallery (London), Graça Fonseca Gallery, Cristina Guerra Contemporary Art, Porta 33, and João Esteves de Oliveira Gallery. Her work is represented in several notable collections, among them Caixa Geral de Depósitos, the António Prates Foundation, the PLMJ Foundation, the Museum of Contemporary Art Belém (Brazil), the Museum of Contemporary Art Osaka, and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.
