Shared Landscapes
Shared Landscapes
With pieces by Chiara Bersani and Marco D'Agostin, El Conde de Torrefiel, Sofia Dias and Vítor Roriz, Begüm Erciyas and Daniel Kötter, Stefan Kaegi, Ari Benjamin Meyers, Émilie Rousset
From afternoon to sunset, we spend a day in nature to explore the plains and forest of Quinta do Pisão, in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, and discover seven artistic projects in dialogue with the landscape. Swiss director Stefan Kaegi, from the German collective Rimini Protokoll, and artistic curator Caroline Barneaud invited ten European artists to share their vision of the landscape. Musical sculptures, theatrical interventions, philosophical audio plays and a virtual reality experience create an unforgettable collective experience. As we enter into imaginary landscapes that awaken our senses and map out what can and cannot be perceived, we experience a surprising examination of the relationship between humans and their environment, between nature and culture.
Shared Landscapes is part of the European project Performing Landscape, the result of a collaboration with institutions and organizations from Spain, Italy, Portugal, Austria, Slovenia, Germany, Switzerland and France. Artists, cultural institutions and scientists develop a reflection on the notions of art, landscape and territory, drawing a visible and invisible map of the different European places they visit, unveiling the spaces they share through the prism of arts and sciences. A different way of looking at and reinventing Europe together. Quinta do Pisão, in Cascais, will be the Portuguese “shared landscape” for this European project.

PRACTICAL INFOS
WHAT TO BRING?
Although the route presents no difficulties and includes several moments of rest (for the shows and for the picnic), it is worth bearing in mind that you will be outdoors for 7 hours.
It is important to dress according to the weather conditions, preparing yourself for a trip that takes place throughout the day and night. Essential items include: water bottle, comfortable closed shoes, a coat for the night, sunscreen, mosquito repellent, and some snacks - portable camping chair/stool (optional)
Upon arrival, you will be given a kit which includes: headphones, a blanket, and a portable bench (optional). They must be returned at the end of the event.
The show takes place in all possible weather conditions and will only be cancelled in the case of extreme weather conditions. In this scenario, information will be sent via SMS and email that will allow you to transfer your reservation to another date.
HOW DOES THE DAY GO?
The complete route lasts 7 hours outdoors. Each piece lasts around 40 minutes. The distances between the pieces are relatively short (between 5 and 15 minutes by foot). The hike is done in groups, crossing fields, and dirt roads with some ascents and descents with uneven pavement. The last show will end at night and transport by bus to Lisboa or Cascais is included in the purchase of the ticket.
Along the way, there will be a break at 7:30pm to eat and rest.
The Culturgest team will be available throughout the day to guide and help, if necessary.

It is possible to order a lunchbox for €10 (light meal consisting of a vegetarian sandwich, fruit, and a drink) by purchasing a ticket for the show, either at the Culturgest physical ticket office or on Ticketline.

ACESSIBILITY
At Quinta do Pisão, a Quadrix all-terrain electric wheelchair is available for each session of Shared Landscapes for people with reduced mobility, and it is recommended that they come accompanied on the day of the show. This wheelchair allows you to follow the entire route. The round trip to Quinta do Pisão can be done by bus and is included free of charge in the show ticket. However, these buses do not have a lifting platform for access by people in wheelchairs, so entry and exit from the vehicle will not be carried out independently.

We also ask you to indicate whether you need a parking space: culturgest.bilheteira@cgd.pt.
There is a 50% discount on tickets for the show people with disability or Deaf people and a companion.
IS THE SHOW SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN?
Although the plays were not specifically designed for a children's audience, none of the plays contain scenes of violence or inappropriate language. However, we discourage the presence of children under 10 due to the duration and specificities of the event.
