Citânia de Briteiros @ Guimarães

A 10 minute drive away from my hometown;

 Guimaraes, in Portugal;

that is going to be Capital of European Culture in 2012,

you can find ruins 

that date more than 3000 years.

These remains are called Citânia de Briteiros, 

and I must say there is a real historical energy 

flowing through that space.

From the communal bathhouses 

to the Council Chamber, there is a wonder 

about how organized and rooted in nature this settlement was.

It has been over 15 years that I've been there,

but I it never ceases to amaze me.

There is always time for history 

in Lalaland.

Guimarães Noc Noc

33

"Mom, can my friends come over?"

This weekend the 1st and 2nd of October

in my glorious hometown 

Guimarães, in Portugal, 

there is a show that takes place

in private houses, cafes, stores and institutions.

Random people who got together 

and agreed to host in their homes

concerts in the kitchen,

exhibitions in the hallways,

screenings in the bathrooms,

a performance pieces that can happen spontaneously

in every corner of the art treasure map.

I have a screening of a short retrospective

of about 7 minutes,

designed to heal and provoke.

Bellow are two postcards that 

I made for this wonderful show.
