“[…] Vermelho’s façade features Contrafachada designed by Tiago Guimarães. Definitely the longest wall expanse in the gallery, the front of the building incorporates six wooden batten structures that present its backside. An architectural gesture of almost simple assertiveness: maintaining that there is no neutrality, even in the design of the container, the habitat or the combat tank; everything has its reverse and its bottom. Every hidden version a counter version. Inversion, contravention and vice versa.
