Filipe Cortez recent interview with Sérgio Parreira, for Arte Capital.
Filipe Cortez received a first painting scholarship from the Rotary Club Portugal in 2011 and two years later he was selected for the 9th Amadeo Prize De Souza-Cardoso. It was an art residence in New York, in the UK (Residency Unlimited) for 6 months, which began an international exhibition route, leading the artist to divide his time between Portugal and New York.
By Sérgio Parreira
SP: I do not know if I counted well, but in the last three years you have done seven individual and three collective exhibitions in New York, and in Portugal only three, which is not exactly just … but less. Before we talk about your visual work, do you want to explain to me how this happens?
FC: It all started from an artist residency in the US (Residency Unlimited), for 6 months, where I started the first contacts for several of these projects.
