Alexandre Liberato (*1981, Lisbon) is a Portuguese visual artist based in Berlin. He holds a BA (Hons) in Architecture from the Technical University of Lisbon (2005) and attended CREART Labs in Barcelona (2017). His work has been exhibited internationally in Berlin at KINDL - Center for Contemporary Art, Gallery Heike Arndt DK, Hošek Contemporary, 48 Stunden Neukölln Festival, and Projektraum 145; in Barcelona at Espacio 88; as well as at the Thessaloniki Queer Art Online Festival. In 2019, KONVENT.ZERO, Barcelona selected Liberato for its artist-in-residence program.Liberato’s project focuses on geometry and the body, creating an abstract inclusive space to exist, to contemplate the sublime: a sensibility that touches everyone equally, transforming them from the inside. Through his work, he seeks a conscious Emancipation, not limited to LGBTQ+ people, but rather an Emancipation of masculinity from toxic outdated paradigms.
