Inside Lisbon’s Creative Pulse: A Conversation with Rita of Lisbon Art Office

How one agency is shaping Portugal’s contemporary art scene, elevating local talent, and redefining cultural storytelling.

In this episode of Podcast Portugal, we sit down with Rita, founder of Lisbon Art Office, to explore the evolving landscape of contemporary art in Portugal. Rita shares the agency’s mission to support emerging and established artists, the changing role of galleries in a digital age, and the importance of creating cultural bridges between Lisbon and the wider international art world.

We discuss the realities of curating exhibitions, nurturing creativity in a fast-paced city, and what it truly takes to build an ecosystem where artists can thrive. Whether you are an art lover, a creative professional, or simply curious about Lisbon’s cultural heartbeat, this conversation offers insight, inspiration, and an inside look at one of the country’s most dynamic artistic platforms.
