Galeria Cristina Guerra presents Lusque-Fusque Arrebol, a solo exhibition by João Maria Gusmão that brings together bronze sculptures, photographs and magic lanterns in a large installation. The works were produced in 2021, using a paracinematic and literary device centred on the mnemonic and spectral origins of the moving image.

Gusmão's work produced in partnership with Pedro Paiva (2001-2018) was the focus of solo shows at institutions such as Hangar Bicocca (Milan, 2014), Haus der Kunst (Munich, 2016), KW (Berlin, 2015), Kunstverein Hannover (2010), Kölnischer Kunstverein (2015), and Kunstverein München (with Alexandre Estrela in 2020) with participations in the Venice Biennale (2009 and 2013), in the São Paulo Biennial (2006), and is represented in the most varied collections such as Instituto Inhotim (Minhas Gerais, Brazil), SFMOMA (San Francisco, USA) and Tate Modern (London, GB), Centre George Pompidou (Paris, FR), Reina Sofia (Madrid, ES). Recently, in 2021, the Serralves Museum held an extensive retrospective exhibition of his work in partnership with Pedro Paiva.

In 2020, João Maria Gusmão collaborated with curator Celia Bernasconi for the exhibition Eugène Frey's Light Set Projections at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco. Since then, he has been developing and presenting several exhibitions and curatorial and editorial projects in collaboration with other artists such as Alexandre Estrela, Mattia Denisse, Gonçalo Pena, and Mauro Restife.
