The installation will be open to the public until 9 October and can be visited during the Museum’s normal opening hours: Tuesday to Friday, from 9.30 am to 5 pm, and Saturdays and Sundays, from 2 pm to 5 pm. Admission is free on Sundays.<\/p>\n\n

On 27 May, at 18:00, the Museum of Angra do Hero\u00edsmo will inaugurate, in the Dacosta Gallery, the exhibition Museu ) em (Aberto<\/strong>, by Ant\u00f3nio Ara\u00fajo. In this installation, Ant\u00f3nio Ara\u00fajo uses video to explore six objects from the collection of the Museum of Angra do Hero\u00edsmo, which have already been captured through his lens in the Museu Aberto<\/em>\u00a0column, published fortnightly in the Di\u00e1rio Insular<\/em> since 2006.<\/p> \n

This first attempt to open the museum\u2019s vast collection to the public, through a personal perspective capable of aesthetically enhancing the objects while conveying their historical, cultural, and emotional significance, was followed by two exhibitions on large-scale canvases displayed on the fa\u00e7ades of the Church of Nossa Senhora da Guia, the Caixa Geral de Dep\u00f3sitos, and the Church of Miseric\u00f3rdia of Angra, an initiative designed to bring the people of Terceira closer to their museum.<\/p> \n

In Museu) em (Aberto<\/strong>, the dynamism inherent to the new medium employed by Ant\u00f3nio Ara\u00fajo allows us to follow the path traced by his gaze, which wanders and scrutinises, pausing with curiosity and appreciation, delighting and enchanting, on a journey of discovery that deconstructs each object to reassemble it into a richer and renewed composition.<\/p> \n

The explored objects are diverse, reflecting the rich and heterogeneous nature of the museum\u2019s collection. Among them, notable for the refinement of their craftsmanship, is an 18th-century Chinese ivory chessboard, and, for its significance in the collective memory of Angra, an embroidered jacket of the Terceiran tauromachic knight Virg\u00ednio Pedro \u00c1vila. The video series is complemented by two pieces of sacred art: The Last Supper, attributed to the masters of the S\u00e9 de Angra (17th century), and Archangel St. Gabriel, a magnificent example of Baroque sculpture; a 20th-century Belgian printing press; and the blacksmith\u2019s workshop within the Schneider-Canet Artillery Battery, the only complete set of its kind in a museum collection, partially presented in the exhibition \u201cAnd Steel Changed the World\u2026 A Schneider-Canet Artillery Battery in the Azores\u201d<\/em>.<\/p><\/p>\n\n
