Guided Tour

13.06 — 19.09.2026

A 30-minute guided tour with no prior registration required, introducing Grada Kilomba’s exhibition The Bottom of the Earth

These 30-minute guided tours of Grada Kilomba’s exhibition The Bottom of the Earth are led by members of the Albuquerque Foundation’s Education Team.

Held on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month, at 3 p.m., the tours provide an introduction to the exhibition, offering visitors an overview of its main themes and highlights. No prior registration is required; visitors are welcome to join the group at the scheduled time.

In the exhibition O Fundo do Mundo (The Bottom of the Earth), the artist envisions a scenography of the future, posing a disturbing and urgent philosophical question that weaves through both her works and their material forms: “What would the bottom of the ocean tell us tomorrow, if it were emptied of water today?”

Participation is free with a valid museum admission ticket. The language of the tour is determined according to the visitors present.
