In 1987 he completed the sculpture programme at the Lisbon School of Fine Arts. In the early 1980s he studied and collaborated with Jo\u00e3o Cutileiro. His work was first represented in the 1st Symposium of Stone Sculpture, held in Evora in 1981, and his first exhibition took place in M\u00f3dulo Gallery \u2013 Centro Difusor de Arte, Lisbon, in 1984.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Working in stone (particularly limestone), bronze, glass and metal, Rosa explores the intrinsic characteristics of those materials through abstract shapes usually with figurative referents, which gives his work a symbolic dimension.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition to solo and group exhibitions, he has participated in sculpture symposia and designed public art projects, such as <em>Homenagem a D. Jo\u00e3o II<\/em> [Memorial to King Jo\u00e3o II], 1998, a public sculpture located in Parque das Na\u00e7\u00f5es, Lisbon, in the ambit of Expo 98. Manuel Rosa was in charge of Editora Ass\u00edrio &amp; Alvim, where he continues to work as a freelance contributor, until 2012, when this publishing house was taken over by Porto Editora. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3632,"template":"","class_list":["post-3644","artistas","type-artistas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas\/3644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artistas"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas\/3644\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3771,"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artistas\/3644\/revisions\/3771"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/miec.cm-stirso.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
