RATO AO SOL is a Luso-Spanish platform for the emerging arts, founded by curators Francisca Portugal and Whataboutvic in 2022.
Having met in Lisbon in 2021, the pair’s objective is to foster an international friendship-based network between Spain, Portugal and beyond. Through intimate interviews and collaborations, RATO AO SOL aims to provide a space for artists and curators to speak extensively about their practices.
