The Blue of the Algarve
Espaço + will open the exhibition “The Blue of the Algarve” by artist Kerstin Wagner on March 27. The exhibition will be open to the public until May 8, 2026.
Inspired by the intense light of the Algarve, the turquoise of the sea, and the deep blue of the sky, Kerstin Wagner explores the expressive power of color and the complementarity between opposites—dynamism and meditation, movement and harmony. Her works, which include water and sea scenes in watercolor and acrylic, as well as compositions—sometimes circular—in pure blue pigments, create a visual experience marked by depth, luminosity, and serenity.
Born near Cologne, Germany, the artist earned a degree in Fine Arts in Bonn/Alfter and completed her training in Art and Social Development at the Alanus Art Academy. With over 200 exhibitions held since 1987, primarily in Europe and Asia, she also stood out for her participation in the international artist residency in Goa in 2015, having exhibited at the Goa Museum (mog) in 2016.
Recognized for the intensity, power, and versatility of her painting, Kerstin Wagner finds an essential source of inspiration in her travels.
It is precisely from this experience of movement—from this attentive gaze that traverses geographies and cultures—that a body of work is born, deeply marked by the sensory experience of places.
In “The Blue of the Algarve,” color transforms into space, emotion, and identity, celebrating the region’s unique landscape and atmosphere.
Come immerse yourself in blue and discover an exhibition that celebrates the color, light, and identity of the Algarve.

Black bass 2026 This year’s lineup is being announced later than usual for the reasons we describe below. But first, the good news: this year, for the first time, Black Bass is moving its main days to Odeceixe. The 11th edition takes place on November 20 and 21 at Bar do Toy and Atmosfera, and on Friday, simultaneously—as has been the case since 2023—at CAEP in Portalegre. Admission in Odeceixe is free. In Portalegre, admission costs €5. Black Bass 2026: Odeceixe at Espaço Earlier this week, we were notified of the mandatory closure of cultural activities at Sociedade Harmonia Eborense, the venue that was set to host the three days of Black Bass in Évora. This year, we had decided to move the entire festival to “she” instead of holding it as a single night, in order to highlight an iconic venue in the city. We left a note of solidarity at “she.” We managed to adjust our plans so that the festival could take place at a decentralized venue, with the necessary conditions for its operation, while maintaining free admission in Odeceixe. In 2026, Black Bass joins forces with the capital of Medronhopunk! We want to thank the Odeceixe community, which has rallied to help us make this festival a reality and has done so much in recent days—and especially over the years—showing that even a small village has the potential to be a cultural hub. We hope you’re ready for the odyssey in Odeceixe.
