Underdogs, a cultural platform dedicated to promoting the production and disclosure of urban-inspired contemporary art, was founded in Lisbon, in 2010, maintaining their current work model – interacting and collaborating with urban-inspired creators through regular exhibitions on their gallery, public art programmes and producing original artist editions – since 2013.
In an ever growing process, Underdogs opened an art store in the heart of the city, at the historical Mercado da Ribeira, one of Lisbon’s main market.

A storefront for the project’s work, Underdogs Art Store was designed by Pedrita studio (designers Rita João and Pedro Ferreira) and the architect António Pedro Louro, selling limited-edition screen prints, created by the world’s leading urban-inspired artists.
A metallic structure with an industrial look, recalling the historical glory of its location, wraps the works of over 30 artists worldwide, curated by the Portuguese artist Alexandre Farto, also known as Vhils, and by Pauline Foessel. The store opened on December 4th, 2014, on the market ground floor and was moved to the first floor on June 24th, 2015, on the occasion of their new visual identity launch.
