O Gabinete de Madame Thao (OGMT) is a contemporary art space focused on the concept of paper, functioning as an art studio/gallery for exhibitions, events and workshops and as a multilingual second-hand books and artisanal paper boutique.
Created by French-Vietnamese artist Sandrine Llouquet, it showcases artworks by international and local artists.
Besides, OGMT is both a full-fledged artwork examining the place of art and its contribution to the society of tomorrow and a community project aimed at providing a platform for talented contemporary artists.
Based on a modest idea (the «paper» materials), the spaces that makeup OGMT illustrate three significant stages of artistic creation: Research (with the bookstore corner), Production (with the paper, art supplies corner), and Exhibition (with the gallery).
To this hybrid character adds an event program drawing on various artistic fields (visual arts, dance, music, theatre) and aimed at meeting various audiences.
Open since July 2021 – following a successful crowdfunding campaign, OGMT moved to the Campo de Ourique district of Lisbon after spending almost 3 years at LX Factory.
OGMT exhibits works by André Almeida e Sousa (Portugal), Luís Almeida (Portugal), Constança Arouca (Portugal), Francisca Carvalho (Portugal), Nadège David (Vietnam), Karishma D´Souza (Goa/Portugal), Nina Fraser (Portugal), Hoang Duong Cam (Vietnam), Hoang Nam Viet (Vietnam), Run Jiang (Portugal), Sandrine Llouquet (Portugal), Le Phi Long (Vietnam), Florian Song Nguyen (Marrocco), Bertrand Peret (France), Madalena Parreira (Portugal), Thao Nguyen Phan (Vietnam), Pedro Proença (Portugal), R.T.
