Overview
Produced in conjunction with the eponymous exhibition that inaugurated the Museu de Arte Contemporânea – MAC/CCB in Lisbon in October 2023, Crossing a Bridge on Fire is the editorial manifestation of Berlinde De Bruyckere’s vision for the museum space. Designed by Pedro Falcão and featuring photographic documentation by Mirjam Devriendt and António Jorge Silva, the two editions of this book (in Portuguese and English) also include previously unpublished essays by Delfim Sardo and Joaquim Oliveira Caetano and a short story by Turkish curator Selen Ansen. Together, these thematic contributions reflect the broad discursive range of De Bruyckere’s work, weaving in anthological overviews, pairings with her historical influences (such as Lucas Cranach), and poetic explorations of themes adjacent to sexuality.
