The Casa-Museu Teixeira Lopes, located in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, holds the distinction of being the first residence of a Portuguese artist to be transformed into a museum. This unique aspect of the museum offers visitors a chance to explore the life and work of the artist in the very space where he lived and created his art.
The Collections of António Teixeira Lopes and Diogo de Macedo
The Casa-Museu Teixeira Lopes was originally the residence and studio of the sculptor António Teixeira Lopes. Later, a collection from the sculptor, museologist, and writer Diogo de Macedo was added to the museum. This combination of collections provides a comprehensive view of the visual arts of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
A Living Artistic Space: The Workshops of Casa-Museu Teixeira Lopes
The workshops of the Casa-Museu Teixeira Lopes, where the sculptor António Teixeira Lopes worked and created his art, are still fully operational today. This makes the museum not just a place of historical significance, but also a living, breathing space of artistic creation, as it serves as the main statue modeling workshop in Portugal.
