Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian (CAM)

This guide to the Centro de Arte Moderna Gulbenkian in Lisbon opens in 1913 with a young Portuguese painter, Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, selling most of his canvases at the Armory Show that introduced modernism to New York. It follows his circle in Paris — Modigliani, Gertrude Stein, Brancusi — and the war and illness that cut his career short before his name nearly vanished for decades. The guide traces how this museum, Portugal's first dedicated to modern art, became the place that kept his story from disappearing. Take a moment under the canopy before you step inside.
