The 'Museum in Ruins' exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Arts of Elvas is one that I would love to go see for myself. The museum asked multiple artists to contribute some work and they have created some really extraordinary installations.
One of the most intriguing installations from Museum in Ruins is a chiseled wall mural. The image depicting two figures beneath a tree has been engraved into the wall with a rough rubble-like texture.
