REBOOT
REBOOT is a platform for discussion about the ecosystem of contemporary art that aims to identify, strengthen and map new collaborative networks in order to make the models of reflection, investigation, production and exhibition of works more inclusive, sustainable and open.

The Speakers
01

Joana Vasconcelos
Born in 1971 is a contemporary visual artist renowned for her monumental sculptures, whose 25 years practise stretches to film and drawing. She updates the arts & crafts concept to the 21st century and incorporates everyday objects with irony and humour, creating a bridge between domestic environment and public space while questioning the status of women, consumerism society and collective identity.
International acclaim came at the first Venice Biennale ever curated by women with The Bride in 2005, followed by Trafaria Praia, the first floating pavilion in the biennale representing Portugal in 2013. The youngest artist and the only woman ever at Palace of Versailles, to a record breaking 1.6 million visitors, her 2012 exhibition was the most visited in France in 50 years. In 2018, Vasconcelos became the first Portuguese to exhibit at Guggenheim Bilbao with a major retrospective, which was one of the most visited in the museum’s history and reached 4th place in The Art Newspaper’s annual exhibitions’ Top 10. Beyond, her biggest show so far in the UK, continues at Yorkshire Sculpture Park until January 2022.

Pierre Hermé
With pleasure as his only guide, Pierre Hermé has invented his own universe of tastes, sensations and pleasures. The man that Vogue USA called the “Picasso of Pastry” created the modern concept of Haute Patisserie, now world renowned.
Inspired creator, adopted an original approach that has revolutionised the traditions of the craft: banishing excessive decorations, using sugar like salt - as a seasoning to bring out other subtle flavours, reinventing himself every day, exploring new flavours, introducing new ingredients and revisiting his own recipes.
Ensconced in his Creative Studio, like an artist, Pierre Hermé imagines his tastes and flavour combinations. He actually draws his creations, just like a couturier does. He writes the recipes, sets the proportions. At his side, the pastry chefs carry out trials until they achieve the result he created in his mind.
All around the globe, the pastry chef and chocolatier who was awarded the title of World’s Best Pastry Chef in 2016 by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants and as the 4th most influential French person in the World by Vanity Fair the same year.
