In den über 40 verschiedenen Museen und Zentren ist für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Wir haben einige für Dich ausgesucht.

QUAKE – Lisbon Earthquake Center

Im Jahr 1755 ereilte Lissabon ein heftiges Erdbeben, das die Stadt für immer veränderte und nachhaltig prägte. Im neuen QUAKE – Lisbon Earthquake Center, im Stadtviertel Belém, wird diese Tragödie unter anderem durch Erdbebensimulatoren und immersives 4D-Erlebnis erlebbar gemacht. Durch zehn Räume führt die anderthalbstündige Tour, in denen Besucher durch das ehemalige Lissabon spazieren und auch erfahren, wie Erdbeben und Tsunamis entstehen und warum die portugiesische Hauptstadt 1755 davon so betroffen war. Die Inhalte des Centers sind auf Portugiesisch, Englisch, Spanisch und Französisch verfügbar. Anschrift R. Cais de Alfandega Velha 36, 1300-598 Lisboa Webseite https://lisbonquake.com/ Öffnungszeiten und Eintrittspreise Das Center ist Dienstag bis Donnerstag von 14 bis 19 Uhr und Freitag bis Montag von zehn bis 19 Uhr geöffnet.

Calouste Gulbenkian Museum

Das Gulbenkian-Museum ist ein bedeutendes Kunstmuseum in Lissabon und nimmt die Besucher in seinen zwei Sammlungen mit auf eine Zeitreise vom alten Ägypten bis zur Gegenwart. Die außergewöhnliche Sammlung des Stifters Calouste Gulbenkian, der einst in Lissabon Asyl fand und zum Dank seine Kunstwerke vererbte, umfasst insgesamt über 6.000 Werke und Kunstobjekte von der Antike bis hin zu Arbeiten von Künstlern aus dem frühen 20. Jahrhundert, die Calouste Gulbenkian im Laufe seines Lebens gesammelt hat. Darunter befinden sich ägyptische, griechisch-römische und islamische Kunst, Kunst aus dem fernen Osten, Münzsammlungen, Gemälde, Skulpturen und europäisches Kunsthandwerk. Werke großartiger Künstler, wie Rubens, Rembrandt, Turner oder Degas und die größte Juwelensammlung von René Lalique sind nur einige Beispiele für die Kunstobjekte, die in einer der besten Privatsammlungen der Welt bestaunt werden können. Das Besondere an diesem Museum ist auch seine Bauweise. Die Architekten haben sich bei der Planung an den Ausstellungsstücken orientiert.

Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau – die Geschichte des Kabeljaus

Das Interpretationszentrum zur Geschichte des Stockfischs erzählt die Geschichte der Seefahrt nach Neufundland und wie es dazu kam, dass der Bacalhau seinen besonderen Platz in der gastronomischen Tradition Portugals einnimmt. In verschiedenen Ausstellungsbereichen können Besucher den Beginn der Odyssee eines ganzen Volkes beobachten und wie es sich „am Ende der Welt ins Meer stürzt“. Welche Gefahren die Fischer auf der Jagd nach dem Kabeljau damals überstehen mussten und wie einsam sie sich manchmal auf hoher See fühlten, erleben die Besucher am eigenen Leib bei einer simulierten Fahrt auf einem traditionellen Dory-Boot. Zudem lernen sie die Arbeitsabläufe an Bord kennen und erfahren, was es mit dem Mythos des „treuen Freundes“ auf sich hat. Doch die Ausstellung informiert nicht nur über die Vergangenheit, sondern auch über die Zukunft des Kabeljaus – über nachhaltige Fischerei, den Verzehr sowie über neue Zubereitungsmethoden des Fisches. Beleuchtet werden neben den wirtschaftlichen Aspekten auch die kulturellen und kulinarischen Aspekte dieser für Portugal so wichtigen Fischart.

Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau / Foto: Turismo de Lisboa / www.visitlisboa.com Weiter begeben sich die Besucher im Saga-Raum auf eine gedankliche Reise in die Vergangenheit und haben hier die Möglichkeit, sich in einem riesigen Buch die legendären und fantastischen Erzählungen der portugiesischen Fischerei im Nordatlantik anzusehen. Bemerkenswert ist auch die Ausstellung ausgewählter Objekte aus der Sammlung des Schifffahrtsmuseums von Ílhavo, die beim Kabeljaufischen verwendet werden. Zudem ist jede Menge Interaktion an verschiedenen Stationen der Ausstellung gefragt: So können die Gäste beispielsweise ihr ultimatives Rezept für Kabeljau im neuen Informationszentrum abgeben, an Bord eines Dorys fotografiert werden oder die Textur eines Kabeljaus erspüren. Im zum Museumskomplex gehörenden Restaurant „Terra Nova“ können sie sich schließlich den Fisch auf der Zunge zergehen lassen, denn dieser ist hier der absolute Star der Speisekarte. Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau Terreiro do Paço, Torreão Nascente, 1100-148 Lisboa Öffnungszeiten und Eintrittspreise Das Interpretationszentrum ist täglich von 10 bis 19 Uhr geöffnet, letzter Einlass 18:30 Uhr. Der Eintritt kostet 4 Euro pro Person, Kinder von 6 bis 15 Jahre zahlen 2 Euro. Senioren und Studenten 3 Euro. Für Gruppen gibt es ermäßigte Preise.

MAAT: Museu de Arte, Arquitetura & Tecnologia

Das Gebäude mit seiner einmaligen Architektur direkt am Fluss ist das Zuhause für zeitgenössische Kunst, Architektur und Technologie: Das Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia (MAAT). Es liegt im Stadtteil Belém, an der Mündung des Tejo, neben einem ehemaligen Elektrizitätswerk und erg��nzt die hier schon ansässigen Museumsbauten zu einer Kultur- und Freizeitfront am Ufer des Tejo. Seine Nachbarn sind das Kulturzentrum Belém und das Kutschenmuseum. Betritt man das Museum, so landen Besucher unmittelbar in einem ovalen, zweigeschossigen Galerieraum – mit seinen 1.200 Quadratmetern der größte des Museums. Eine Treppe und eine Rampe fassen den Raum ein und führen hinab ins Erdgeschoss, von wo aus der Rundgang durch die wechselnde Ausstellung beginnt – hier stellen nationale und internationale zeitgenössische Künstler aus. Darüber hinaus bietet das begehbare Dach eine tolle Aussicht über den Tejo.

What happened in Portugal in 1974 needs to happen in Russia.

Today, April 25th, is the 48th anniversary of the 1974 Portuguese Revolution. A group of junior and middle ranking officers in the Portuguese military overthrew a fascist dictatorship which had been in power over 40 years.

The Estado Novo régime came to power in the same era as Mussolini, Hitler, and Franco. However it had been less heavy handed than those other dictatorships; its first and longest lasting leader, António Salazar, was a fervent Catholic who was turned off by the “paganism” of his fellow pre-war dictators and ruled accordingly. Still there were secret police, limits on free speech and the press, and no genuinely fair elections.

By the mid 1970s, Portugal was the last European country to have a colonial empire. A non-stop series of wars in the colonies had taken a large toll on the country. Younger and more clear-thinking officers decided that a change in the country was long overdue.

BBC History Extra describes what happened.

In March 1974, General António de Spínola was dismissed from his position as deputy minister of the armed forces.

He had written a book in which he suggested that the Portuguese colonial wars should come to an end. He was critical of the current Portuguese regime, something that was regarded as heretical by Portugal’s right-wing establishment.

The Armed Forces Movement (MFA) was soon formed by dissident and low- ranking officers who supported Spínola. Captains within the armed forces were also unhappy with a law which would grant privileges to conscripted officers, to the resentment of professionally trained officers. The armed forces’ support for the government was rapidly deteriorating.

Just before midnight on 24 April, Portugal’s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest – ‘E Depois do Adeus’ (And After The Farewell) – was played by the radio station Emissores Associados de Lisboa, as had been arranged by the rebels. This was the first of two secret signals that the army was waiting for.

Tanks entered the centre of Lisbon in the early hours of 25 April and soon the airport, television and radio centres were taken over, as well as the Salazar Bridge over the river Tagus. Prime Minister Marcello Caetano, along with other ministers, had taken refuge in the Carmo barracks, which housed the National Republican Guard, and these were stormed by troops, armed with machine guns. With little resistance, Caetano surrendered to Spínola.

[ ... ]

Radio appeals by the revolutionaries asked people to stay inside, but many flooded the streets and joined in, supporting the troops. By the time the sun had risen on 26 April, the MFA was in charge and promised to hold democratic elections for a national assembly as soon as they could.

In 2014 for the 40th anniversary, NBC News did a piece on it.

Portugal Honors April 25 Revolution, the World's Coolest Coup

They took less than 24 hours to bring down Europe's longest-lived dictatorship and signal the end of the last colonial empire in Africa.

"It was a coup like no other," recalled Swiss journalist Werner Herzog, who reported on the revolution.

"The atmosphere was more like a party," he joked at a conference on Wednesday. "None of us had ever heard of an army intervening to bring democracy, surely it's normally the other way round."

It certainly did turn out to be cool. By June of 1976 Portugal had drafted a constitution, elected a parliament, and installed a president – all peacefully and democratically. In just 26 months, Portugal had gone from a fascist dictatorship to a fully functioning Western liberal democracy. And it’s still doing fine today.

Portugal is one of the most stable and resilient truly democratic countries on the planet. It’s amazing what a success story it has been. It is proof that a difficult history doesn’t have to be a drag on a country’s present and future.

As for Russia, we can only hope that there are middle ranking officers currently plotting to remove their own fascist régime. They do have a much more difficult job than their Portuguese counterparts in 1974. The Estado Novo régime was fascism lite while Putin is a lot more like the hardcore Nazis of the late 1930s in Germany.

Anyway, the BBC excerpt above alluded to “the first of two secret signals” which were played on Lisbon radio stations to give the go-ahead for the revolution. The second was more important and is now a revered patriotic song in Portugal. Grândola, Vila Morena had been banned on radio by the government. So when it was played just after midnight on Rádio Renascença on April 25th, everyone involved knew there was no turning back.

Studio Visit: KWY.studio

The visit to KWY.studio was the first one from our series to happen in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. We sat outside a café in Alfama, near the office which the KWY team may soon be leaving. “We’ve outgrown the premises”, says Ricardo Gomes, one of the founders and current principal, noting that the team has doubled in size since the end of 2019. After a period of slowing down brought about by the coronavirus, things are moving forward again.

KWY.studio in Alfama, Lisbon. | Photo © Sonja Dragović KWY.studio was founded in 2009 in Berlin by architects Ben Allen and Ricardo Gomes, and curator and editor James Bae from Los Angeles. Named after a magazine published in Paris in the 1950s and 1960s by an international group of artists-collaborators, KWY.studio was focused on creative collaboration from the outset. “The idea for this collaborative practice was to work with someone else on every single project we do”, Ricardo says, joking how the array of things they have done over the last decade might bring about a certain sense of cacophony. The list of collaborators is indeed long and varied; it includes artists, writers, curators, educators, designers, and other architects. Collaborations result in the body of work now scattered all over the world: at any given moment, the practice is involved in about 10 different projects in different places. Rather than trying to break onto the international scene, this studio seems to have always been there. Ricardo explains KWY’s international position as an organic one, tied to the studio’s beginnings in the creative scene of Berlin, and grown from the professional and personal ties and networks of its founders and partners. The current crisis brought about by the coronavirus highlights some of the challenges of such interconnectedness by making international travel more difficult. Still, as Ricardo puts it, “this is the only way to work”.

KWY.studio considers collaboration to be the central part of their creative process. Although collaborations differ and change depending on the project, which makes them challenging to typify or map their exact flow, the process always stays the same: the original idea is tested and rigorously debated until it becomes the best possible solution within the given constraints. “It's a good thing, to not have this preconceived idea of the result”, Ricardo says, pointing out that the practice tries to keep the design processes relatively open and non-hierarchical as well: “The collaborative component is important, also within our studio: I try to give the guidance and steer the process a little bit, without necessarily being the one who approves or disapproves of the solution.”

One of the numerous collaborations with SUPERFLEX, produced at Tate Modern in 2017; “One Two Three Swing! challenges society’s apathy towards the political, environmental and economic crises of our age”. The installation has since been presented in Bonn, Copenhagen, Dora, and AlUla. | Photo © James Morris

To be good collaborators, young architects need to know that, as architects, they can cover an array of different positions within the process – that they can do many different things, not all of which is architecture. As an educator who used to occupy teaching positions at UDK in Berlin and at DIS Copenhagen, this is what Ricardo sees as important for the new generation, along with the understanding of the necessity to take the time to learn, to adapt, to overcome the problem. In his own words: “Many architecture students, or people just out of university, have very transient work experience; they want to be in one place for six months and then move on. We always tell them that we would rather have a minimum of one year engagement… We get hundreds of applications, and that’s truly a gift. But it seems that many young people today don't see the fact that for you to learn something, you actually need to be in a place for some time, and it takes more than a few months. There is this belief that if you are unhappy, you must move. Well, sometimes it's OK to be unhappy for some time, to use that time to learn, to understand, to resolve a problem instead of just leaving.”

Donald Judd cubes in Marfa, Texas. Thinking about students today and remembering what architectural education and research were like before the Internet became ubiquitous, Ricardo tells a story of how important European exhibitions of Donal Judd were to him personally, and how different the experience of tracking down important works, artists and places was in the not-so-distant world of the year 2001, in the era before Google Maps and smartphones. | Photo via artists-network

Après Vous, Le Déluge, collaboration with SUPERFLEX. The installation shows the projected water level rise by 2050. “By physically showing the likely adverse consequences of our collective conduct, the artwork emphasises that we have no choice but to radically transform the way we live together.” | Photo © Marco Cappelletti

The stance of KWY.studio towards the issues society is facing today is reflected in their work. The practice doesn’t focus on activism but sees political and social considerations as vital to any decision that the architect makes - as inherent to architecture. One of their recent works responding to the issue of climate change is Après Vous, Le Déluge - another collaboration with SUPERFLEX, whose art often deals with this topic. This installation in Galeries Lafayette in Paris shows what the water levels will be in 2050 if nothing is done to stop the climate disaster. According to Ricardo, in addition to collaborating in such conceptual works, KWY.studio is interested in coming up with long-term architectural response to the rising sea levels: “We have been working, also in collaboration with SUPERFLEX, on projects with the idea of potential structures built above ground now, which will eventually be submerged. How do you deal with such a request today? How do you build something today that you know will be submerged, or at least under pressure because of climate change?”

Planning for Protest, September - December 2013, Lisbon Architecture Triennale | Photo via KWY.studio

Today it seems particularly relevant to mention that I first got to know KWY.studio through their work on Planning for Protest, an exhibition and a publication presented at Lisbon Architecture Triennale in 2013. As a project which examined the role of architecture in shaping, defining, or limiting the flow of protest within urban space, it seems to be another work of KWY.studio resonating with the current crisis. Ricardo points out how Planning for Protest was inspired by a wave of unrest at the time of a deep economic crisis, whereas the issues we’re experiencing today are different, more complex, just as their underlying causes. Although the Planning for Protest publication has been in exhibitions over the last couple of years, the popular interest for the project grew noticeably over the last couple of months. As Ricardo explains the sudden surge in popularity of the project’s old Facebook page: “I guess there are more people searching for protest and space and architecture and coming across this, which is quite interesting.”

It’s evident that the repercussions of the multifaceted contemporary crisis affect everything, from how we work and what we read, to how we protest and where we go. As our conversation draws to an end, the unexpected quietness of summertime in Alfama tells plenty about how the city of Lisbon has changed, how tailored to the masses of tourists it became, how empty without them. “There’s a certain uncertainty,” Ricardo concludes, as we leave the terrace in Campo de Santa Clara.

Hey there! Maybe you didn't get my ask or maybe you didn't want to answer it (which would be totally okay btw), but nevertheless here it is again! I'm doing Interrail in Portugal in August: Lisboa-Porto-Coimbra-Evora. Do you have any tips for me? Do's, don'ts? Thanks so much! Love from Vienna🤗 PS: if you don't want to answer it's totally fine, I just thought I would give it another try:)

Hi! I definitely didn’t get your ask the first time, I’m glad you gave it another try. So first of all: YES an Interrail in Portugal 🎉 and you’re coming to Porto ❤️

First Do is meeting me in Porto haha (only if you would feel comfortable ofc).

More seriously though, a big Do is trying ALL the pastries: Pastel de Nata (I actually like them better than the more popular Pastel de Belém), Bola de Berlim, Jesuítas, Cavacas, Croissants (the Porto ones, which there are two varieties of and you gotta try both), Limonetes, Pão de Deus, Castanhas de Ovo, Cristas de Galo, Broa de Mel, etc etc etc. The best place for pastries is the Confeitaria Porto Rico in Porto - try some almendrados. They’re to die for. And the BREAD. I’ve been to Central Europe several times and I’m sorry to say this, but y’all can’t make proper bread. So that’s another thing on the list.

Two big DON’T’s: high heels and crossing the street outside of crosswalks or with red lights. We Portuguese have developed a special talent for crossing the street when and where we shouldn’t. Don’t try to do the same, it’ll go wrong.

The high heels thing is because a LOT of our sidewalks are very irregular. Also, don’t expect us to speak Spanish (really, some people get really annoyed).

As for DO’s: always say “bom dia” if it’s morning, “boa tarde” if it’s afternoon, or “boa noite” if it’s night when you approach someone. Or, you know, “hello”. Say please and thank you - and excuse me. We value that. Always check if there are services tickets like at the supermarket, the bakery, the pharmacy, and such. Oh and do pay attention to graffitis (there’s BEAUTIFUL art) and expect to EAT - and have dinner late, because no Portuguese person has dinner before 7 pm.

Our summer has been quite shy so I wouldn’t expect high temperatures, but in Portugal you never know. It’s usually definitely warmer in the south though.

Anyway, city by city:

Lisboa

DO’s

Visit the central places, like Praça do Rossio, Praça do Comércio, Avenida da Liberdade, Palácio de Belém. Lisbon is like half pretty and half ugly af, and the (very, very) pretty part is basically only the famous part. Fonte Luminosa, which is a bit off the centre, is definitely worth seeing, too. That area is pretty as well, I guess. Avoid the 28 streetcar during rush hour - there’s a lot of pickpockets there. Actually, stay alert: there are a lot of pickpockets in Lisbon, in general. If you’re not claustrophobic or something of the sort, then try the underground caves, like Galeria Subterrânea do Loreto and Reservatório da Patriarcal. Go to the Park of Necessidades. Also, Villa Bertha is considered the pretties street in Lisbon. The Oceanário is pretty cool too, though I prefer the Vasco da Gama Aquarium, which is beautiful both inside and out and has a GIANT SQUID.

DON’T’s

Again, avoid the 28 streetcar (and streetcars in general) during rush hour. Avoid the more touristy Fado houses - go for the small, inconspicuous ones instead. The music show is free and the food is cheaper and better. Avoid this shit like the plague - it can give you cooties. Look at this if you want to either laugh or feel second-hand embarrassment - it’s basically a giant toilet 😂

Porto

DO’s

Everything? The historical part (Baixa), the seaside (Foz, where you might even stumble into Iker Casillas), the riverside (Ribeira), the Boavista Avenue, the City Park, Serralves, Palácio de Cristal, this beauty, the museum attached to that beauty, the Port wine caves. You can also literally just cross the bridge to Gaia and get up to Jardim do Morro, which has beautiful sights (striking view to Porto). Visit the churches in Baixa, they’re all beautiful inside. Try a francesinha (it’s mandatory! “O Afonso” might be a good restaurant, Anthony Bourdain himself visited it and it’s not too packed and touristy). You can find the best pastries in Porto, too. Do you know what this is? McDonald’s. Yep. Visit the Café Imperial. Obviously, you HAVE to eat fish - I recommend this restaurant in Matosinhos, which is also glued to Porto (imagine a sandwich: Gaia and Matosinhos are the bread and Porto is the ham). Go to Cervejaria Gazela, it has great beer and great cachorrinhos da Batalha. In Avenida da Boavista, go to A Casa da Boavista - it’s gorgeous and the food is good too. Take the many staircases that connect Ribeira to Baixa and take the chance to visit the Sé. Cool fact: the Harry Potter setting/universe was inspired by Porto. JK Rowling lived here for some years and you can really see the similarities. Oh and the urban art is Porto is something else.

DON’T’s

Nightlife in Porto is in Baixa, don’t go anywhere else, it’s not worth it. Don’t eat in Foz - every place there is overpriced because it’s basically where the rich people live (still a GREAT place to visit though). Don’t go to the City Park at night. Don’t expect the metro to work past 1 am (the yellow/D line works 24h on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays though). Again, no high heels. Bring comfortable shoes. Don’t try to speak Spanish - go for English. Do NOT compliment Lisbon. Lisbon sucks. Lisbon stinks. Lisbon is evil. Lisbon is the embodiment of The System™ and our corrupt politicians. Porto represents the fight against The System™ and against a central power that stays afloat on the shoulders of those who actually work. Complimenting Lisbon to a Portuense is like saying that blarke is the best and only real ship to a Clexa fan. Got it?

Coimbra

In Coimbra, I’d say visit the academic area (the University of Coimbra was the first in the country), the botanical gardens, and Portugal dos Pequenitos. And of course, Quinta das Lágrimas, home to the most epically romantic (and quite violent) story in the history of Portugal, dating back to the 14th century.

(basically, Prince Pedro, heir to the throne, loved Inês, who was a handmaiden to the princess he was about to marry; they “dated” at the Fonte dos Amores; but the romance triggered a huge political drama, so the King ordered Inês’s death; she was killed while Pedro was away on a hunting trip - they killed her next to the Fonte das Lágrimas, where legend says her bloody tears as she died stained the water (fun fact: the red stains remain and are unique to that fountain); shortly thereafter, the King died and Pedro was crowned King of Portugal; still enraged over his lover’s death and now able to exact revenge, Pedro killed his Inês’s murderers - TW actually ripped their hearts out; not quite satisfied, he ordered Inês unearthed and dressed like royalty, and crowned her his queen - and then forced everyone in the court, who had once belittled Inês, to kiss her hand; then he “built” the (beautiful) Alcobaça Monastery, where their mortal remnants still lie today - their tombs face each other so that, according to the legend, they can wake up in the afterlife looking into each other’s eyes).

Évora

Visit the Megalíticos and the Roman ruins. Go to Diana’s Garden and the Loios Church. Visit the Art Café and, if you’re feeling like having some regional cuisine, try the 5 Amêndoas restaurant, it’s a nice mix of traditional and modern. Also, remember: Évora is in Alentejo, which means it’s REALLY hot during the day (upwards of 30º C) and pretty cold at night (below 15º C).

How Cézanne’s Apples

Turned Me into a Food Writer

An author, former editor, and storied restaurant

critic recalls a turning point in her life.

Ruth Reichl

Aug 31, 2021

Paul Cézanne turned me into a food writer.

But it was not for any of the reasons you might imagine.

In the late sixties, when I was a graduate student in art history, my professors were constantly dropping the names of restaurants near great monuments of art. I wrote them all down: the trattoria five minutes from Giotto’s murals in Assisi (“get the ribollita”), the bistro around the corner from Notre Dame that served fantastic choucroute, and the 500-year-old tofu specialist near Kyoto’s Kinkaku-ji. And it was while studying Gustav Klimt that I first heard of Demel, Vienna’s venerable emporium of pastry.

The art historians I studied with also enjoyed deconstructing the many meals depicted in art. Together we devoured endless last suppers, along with the painted feasts of Bruegel, Vermeer, and Veronese. They discussed artists like Orozco and de Heem, who used food as both allegory and a means of illuminating ordinary life. And when one professor announced that his next lecture would be devoted to the food of Cézanne, I could hardly wait.

We walked into the room to find a slide of Cézanne’s Apples on the giant screen above our heads. “Cézanne,” the professor began, “once told a friend that fruits ‘love having their portraits done’.” We all stared up at the painting as he continued. “Cézanne also said that he wanted to ‘astonish Paris with an apple’.”

I concentrated on that image, waiting to be astonished. But hard as I tried, those apples left me cold. Cézanne’s apples, I soon discovered, were not apples; they were painted strokes on a canvas, and he did not want you to forget it. That was the point.

I understood what the artist was up to. That painting was about art, not apples. It was about the impossibility of ever making two dimensions truly resemble three. It is an interesting intellectual idea, and in the context of art history, an important one. But the more I stared at that painting, the more I began to wonder if I wanted to spend the rest of my life thinking about such things.

I left that class in a state of confusion. It was a beautiful fall afternoon, and as I walked back to my apartment, I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something wrong with me. Shouldn’t a person who planned to be an art historian appreciate Cézanne’s apples? Passing a local grocery store I noticed a fine display of Ida Reds, Arkansas Blacks, and Esopus Spitzenburgs. They were beautiful; astonishing, in fact. But I had no desire to contemplate those apples; all I wanted to do was eat them. I bought as many as I could carry, determined to transform them into something delicious.

At home I peeled the apples, listening to the seductive way they came whispering out of their skins. I sliced them and showered them with lemon juice, leaning into the citric scent. Constructing a crumble, I concentrated on the way the butter became one with the flour. And then, surrounded by the heady aroma of sugar, butter, and fruit swirling through my kitchen, I opened my notebooks and began to read.

The evidence was all there: I was looking at art but focusing on food. I was clearly not meant to be an art historian. Much as I enjoyed studying art, my true passions lay elsewhere. By the time the apples emerged from the oven, my life had chang https://www.moma.org/magazine/articles/617

Documenting "Yellow" Coffins from Bab el-Gasus

June 24. 2021

Written by Rogério Sousa, Professor of Egyptology and Ancient History at the Centre for History of the Faculty of Humanities, University of Lisbon. Gate of the Priests Project.

When in 2009 I was entrusted with the mission of producing a catalogue of the coffin sets of the so-called "Eighth Lot of Antiquities" from Bab el-Gasus (Sousa 2017), I could hardly imagine that this would be a turning moment of my life as a researcher (Fig. 1). This collection had been given in 1893 by the Egyptian authorities, just two years after its discovery. Bab el-Gasus was discovered by Eugène Grébaut and Georges Daressy, containing the undisturbed burial sets of 153 priests and priestesses of Amun who lived during the 21st Dynasty. Due to the sheer size of the find, a decision was made to offer some of these antiquities to Egypt's countries with diplomatic relations. In 1893, when the young khedive Habas II Hilmi was crowned, 17 lots of antiquities were prepared and shipped to the respective countries. The Portuguese Lot was entrusted to the Sociedade de Geografia de Lisboa (Fig. 2). It included five anthropoid coffins (four inner coffins and one outer coffin), three mummy covers, and a sample of shabtis. Like most other lots from Bab el-Gasus, this collection remained in the Museum's storerooms and unpublished. https://www.digital-epigraphy.com/projects/documenting-yellow-coffins-of-the-so-called-eighth-lot-of-antiquities-from-bab-el-gasus?fbclid=IwAR1bu3tVT_jtxTQffJf3CQt56PwiflthnwhW0ljyOsGTTn_afHDeSY1OsGI

This week digitalEPIGRAPHY is looking at “Documenting ‘Yellow’ Coffins from Bab el-Gasus” by Rogério Sousa, Professor of Egyptology and Ancient History at the University of Lisbon.

Prof. Sousa briefly reviews the history of these remarkable anthropoid coffins (from a large cache of undisturbed burials of priests and priestesses of Amun from Dynasty 21, discovered near the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut and given to Portugal in the late 1800s). He then highlights the imperative need for drawings, as so much of the decorative detail was not visible in photographs (image 2), and discusses the importance of the drawings for his further work on understanding these incredibly elaborate coffins (images 3 and 4)!

São Bernardo Elementary School, Aveiro

São Bernardo Elementary School, Aveiro Building Project, New Portuguese Architecture, Portugal, Images

São Bernardo Elementary School in Aveiro

14 Jul 2021

Architects: ARTE TECTóNiCA

Location: Aveiro, Portugal

São Bernardo Elementary School

The aim was to create a new project to replace 8 basic educational classrooms at São Bernardo School, in Aveiro, Portugal.

For about a decade, the school was housed in a prefabricated pavilion, now reused as a covered playground.

Located between the cafeteria and the gym, the available terrain was a longitudinally East/West rectangular shape.

The concept was a two volume/two floors building, with an independent entrance and roof covering, as Aveiro is one of the highest rainfall districts in Portugal. In addition to the 8 classrooms, the program also included a teachers’ lounge and a gym.

Juxtaposing “serviced spaces” with “servant spaces” (Op. Cit. Louis Kahn), the proposed concept was to consecrate the North exposure to the classrooms, and to distribute the “servant” spaces along the central corridor, big enough to have individualized student lockers.

This horizontal circulation longitudinal space is reproduced both in ground and first floor, with connection through a wide staircase, beginning in the two-story high, entrance hall.

The plan is approximately rectangular, “centre parting”, with classroom façade cutouts strictly exposed to geographic North, to receive the “perfect light”, without direct solar incidence. Exceptionally the covered entrance evades the East / West orthogonality, and aligns the walkway trough an 45º axis.

The four slopes articulated roof allows a two volumes silhouette, that conceals in the middle “valley” the HVAC equipment and the solar panels.

The white tile and walls option unifies by color the two volumes, the outer walkways in Thermoclear blue frames the white, adding to the opacity of the built mass the lightness of the translucent porches in sky blue.

Tipps für eine Lissabon-Reise mit Kindern

Als familienfreundliches Ziel für eine Städtereise mit Kindern präsentiert sich Lissabon. Die Flugzeiten halten sich in Grenzen, gut ausgebaute öffentliche Verkehrsmittel, schöne Strände, viel Grün, kindgerechte Führungen in Museen oder Mitmach-Ausstellungen sowie zahlreiche Attraktionen für Groß und Klein gleichermaßen, sprechen für einen Trip in die Tejo-Metropole. Ozeanarium, Zoo oder das Lisboa Story Centre sprechen die gesamte Familie an.

Haie aus nächster Nähe: Oceanário im Parque nas Nações

Die Unterwasserwelt im Oceanário im Parque nas Nações, einem der größten Meeresaquarien der Welt, beherbergt rund 16.000 Meeresbewohner. Durch eine Glasscheibe, die sich über zwei Stockwerke, eröffnet sich den Besuchern im großen Hauptaquarium, gefüllt mit fünf Millionen Litern Salzwasser, eine wunderbare Welt. Zum Greifen nahe ziehen hier unter anderem Haie, Rochen, ganze Makrelenschwärme und ein Mondfisch vorbei. Der Eintritt kostet 19 Euro pro Person, für Kinder von drei bis zwölf Jahren 13 Euro. https://www.oceanario.pt/en

2.200 Tiere im Lissaboner Zoo

Wer noch mehr Tiere sehen will, der sollte den Lissabonner Zoo besuchen – vor allem mit Kindern ist dies eine schöne Sehenswürdigkeit, um einen Tag abseits des Trubels Stadt zu verbringen. Geparden, Tiger, Seelöwen, Affen und Koalas: Im mehr als 100 Jahre alten Zoo leben rund 2.200 Tiere und weit über 330 verschiedene Tierarten. Eine Seilbahn mit offenen Kabinen verläuft über das Areal und bietet interessante Perspektiven und Blicke auf die tierischen Bewohner. Der Eintritt kostet 25,18 Euro pro Person, Kinder von drei bis zwölf Jahre zahlen 15,68 Euro. https://www.zoo.pt/en/.

Quer durch Lissabons Geschichte im Lisboa Story Centre

In der interaktiven Ausstellung begeben sich Besucher auf eine virtuelle Reise in die Vergangenheit Lissabons – von der Entstehung bis zur Gegenwart. Auf 2.200 Quadratmetern erfahren Besucher mittels einer multimedialen Ausstellung in rund einer Stunde alles Wissenswerte über die Stadt von ihrer Entstehung bis zur Gegenwart. Die Ausstellung ist in sechs Bereiche unterteilt. Kernstück des Lisboa Story Centre: Groß und Klein können das Erdbeben von 1755 „erleben“. Außerdem erfahren sie anhand eines Modells, wie die Stadt vor dem großen Erdstoß ausgehen hat. In einem eigenen Bereich informiert die Ausstellung über den Wiederaufbau Lissabons nach den Plänen des damaligen Premierministers und Stadtplaners Marquês de Pombal. Besuchern steht ein Audioguide in neun verschiedenen Sprachen zur Verfügung – auch auf Deutsch. Eine kindgerechte Audioführung ist ebenfalls erhältlich. Das Lisboa Story Centre liegt an dem Platz „Praça do Comércio“ im Zentrum der Stadt und ist täglich von 10 bis 20 Uhr geöffnet. Der Eintritt kostet 6,50 Euro pro Person, für Kinder von sechs bis 15 Jahren drei Euro. www.lisboastorycentre.pt

Zentrum für Mythen und Legenden in Sintra

Mystik, Geheimnisse und Romantik sind hingegen der Hauptbestandteil des Centro Interpretativo Mitos e Lendas von Sintra. Hier geht es um die verdeckte Geschichte des Ortes. Die Route, die durch das Museum führt, besteht aus 17 Bereichen und nimmt die Besucher mit auf eine Reise durch Geschichte, Musik und Literatur. Dabei kommen bei der Präsentation Szenografie und Multimedia-Techniken wie Hologramme, audiovisuelle Effekte und 3D-Filme gleichermaßen zum Einsatz. www.visitlisboa.com/de/setzt/interpretives-zentrum-mythen-und-legenden.

Abenteuer im Adventure Park

Beim Canopy geht es darum, Hindernisse, die sich zwischen Baumkronen befinden zu überwinden. Dies können hängende Brücken, Seile, Netze oder Tunnel sein, wobei am Ende eines Parcours immer eine Rutsche steht. Im Adventure Park klettern Besucher vor den Toren Lissabons mitten in einem dichten Wald auf bis zu zwölf Meter hohen Bäumen – sicherlich ein spannendes Abenteuer für die ganze Familie. www.visitlisboa.com/de/setzt/adventure-park

Jede Menge Wissen im Pavilhão do Conhecimento

Im Pavillion des Wissens gibt es Wissenschaft zum Anfassen. Bei dem interaktiven Museum dürfen sich Groß und Klein auf allerlei Experimente freuen, die nicht nur unterhaltsam sind, sondern auch gleichsam lehrreich. Mit mehr als 300 interaktiven Modulen erhalten die Kinder spielerischen Zugang zu einer Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Wissensgebiete. Sie lernen hier die Welt der Physik durch eine Reihe von Versuchen kennen. Oder sie tauchen beispielsweise in der Ausstellung „Fishanário“ in die Tiefe des Meeres ein und lernen die Bewohner des Ozeans kennen. Diese riesige Meereswelt zu kennen, zu respektieren und zu schützen, ist für die Zukunft der Menschheit unerlässlich. Der Eintritt kostet zehn Euro pro Person. Kinder von drei bis elf Jahren zahlen sieben Euro, von zwölf bis 17 Jahren acht Euro. www.pavconhecimento.pt/en/ Titelfoto / Oceanário de Lisboa / ©ATL

I offer walks or tours around Lisbon, through the lens of The Arcades Project, Walter Benjamin’s massive accumulation of notes collected between 1927-1940 on nineteenth-century Paris. These walks are for anyone, however familiar or unfamiliar with Benjamin’s work, who is interested in exploring the city. Walks are tailored and work as an introduction to The Arcades Project but also a means to access the city outside the text – for those in Lisbon for a short time or for those who have been here a while.

The walks are organised around the interests of the walkers, however big the group, but places we could visit would be: the Águas Livres Aqueduct and Lisbon’s urban reservoirs, the port, the kiosks, the Jewish Cemetery, the Puppet/Marionette Museum, the botanical gardens, the museums, the churches, the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga (of which there is one fragment in the Arcades), the Santa Justa Lift, the German Embassy and the surrounding park, various shopping centres from an old arcade and the hyper post-modern Amoreiras Shopping Centre, and endless things in between.

Throughout the walks we can think and talk about a number of things: paving stones and pavements, iron construction, churches, the history of fire in the city, waste, Jugendstil, the weather, trees, trams, bridges, statues, fountains, aquariums, revolution(s), barricades, intoxicants, myths, stories, waterways, reservoirs, aqueducts, walking/strolling, construction/demolition, post-modernist architecture, malls/department stores, monuments, history of colonialism, signs of Hausmannisation in Lisbon, kiosks, social housing, asphalt/tarmac/macadam, gambling, fashion, history and historiography, the Metro, cinema, museums/the museum, the port/containers, graveyards/burial.

The PDF of The Arcades Project is here.

Prices depend on a number of things but please get in touch ([email protected]) and we can discuss from there.

Sam Dolbear is a PhD student working on Walter Benjamin among others. He has published widely, on pedagogy, dreams, friendship and jellyfish. In 2017 he taught The Arcades Project at the Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa and is currently, with Hannah Proctor and Sophie Carapetian, co-editing a series of pamphlets on the text. He is also engaged in a long-term project to convert the text into a massive accumulation of audio files.

29.01.20 MUSICBOX The Legendary Tigerman

"Inspirado no velho formato de one-man-band nascido nas margens do Delta do Mississipi”. É assim que começa o press release de The Legendary Tigerman. E assim tem sido nos últimos 20 anos. A primeira frase sempre foi o mote, a fundação de tudo, quase como um mantra que ecoaria em cada canção de Paulo Furtado. Mas o homem tigre vestiu muitas peles, galgou terreno nos 7 continentes, abraçou cada um de nós, fosse na sala mais pequena do Japão ou no maior festival da Europa. Tigerman fez-se de muitas formações, muitos formatos para entregar o rock n’ roll como só ele sabe... em doses desmedidas de turbulência e agitação, exactamente como tem de ser. 20 anos depois da estreia a solo, The Legendary Tigerman regressa ao palco novamente sozinho, acompanhado apenas da sua guitarra, um kit de bateria e um kazoo. Serão 11 cidades, 11 celebrações do mais puro rock n’ roll e blues. Únicas e irrepetíveis. Únicas e apetecíveis. “Queria começar um projeto que fosse lendário logo à partida, como uma provocação” dizia, altivo e sagaz, The Legendary Tigerman. Pois então que se celebrem as provocações no tempo do politicamente correcto. Celebre-se o amor às causas. Celebre-se o Rock n’ Roll lendário... em cada noite, em cada cidade, como se fosse a última vez.

30.01.20 LUX FRÁGIL VALSA DE VIANA Jeff Mills

Jeff Mills is considered the most brilliant DJ and producer of Techno Music in the World. He is the most recoｇnized representative figure of Detroit Techno , where he began his career as a DJ on the WDRQ radio in 1984. He has created with “Mad Mike Banks” the collective “Underground Resistance”, which became a reference in the electro sphere. In 1992, Jeff Mills created his own label in Chicago :with “Axis”, he could keep his artistic independence and produce his own timeless electronic music compositions, inspired of science fiction. Jeff Mills’ artistic career goes much further than techno music.

For over a decade, he’s been transcending disciplines with a large number of collaborations in contemporary art. Interested in cinema and attracted by images, Jeff Mills started working, in 2000, on the fusion of image and sound. In 2000, he created and presented at the Centre Pompidou a new sound track for the film “Metropolis” by Fritz Lang. A year after, he created “Mono”, an installation inspired by the movie “2001, a Space Odyssey”, by Stanley Kubrick. In 2004, Jeff Mills produced the DVD “Exhibitionist” which presents DJ sets filmed from various angles (from front, top and side). At that same period, he acquired a new tool, the DVJ-X which allowed him to manipulate image and sound together paving the way into the Art World.

In 2005, Jeff Mills made, for MK2, a new sound track for the silent movie “Three Ages” by Buster Keaton, and created a serie of 6 video art works presented in Paris at the Galerie Georges-Philippe et Nathalie Vallois and at the « rendez-vous vidéo » of the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Rouen. Jeff Mills continued this work period with a production on Josephine Baker, presented during the FIAC 2005 in the Grand Palais.

On July 2nd 2005, Jeff Mills played together with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Montpellier, for the 20th anniversary of the Pont du Gard's inclusion in the world heritage list by UNESCO. Together with the orchestra, Jeff Mills performed his own compositions, orchestrated by Thomas Roussel for this occasion. In 2007, he was invited by the movie director Claire Denis to create the sound environment of the exhibition « Diaspora » at the musée du quai Branly in Paris.. That same year, Jeff Mills received the title of « Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres» from the French ministry of Culture. In 2008, Jeff Mills was commissioned to create a comtemporary installation for 100 Year Anniversary of the Futurist Manifesto at the Pompidou Center.

31.01.20 Inatel - All Nigh Set w/ Stereo Addiction

O Village Underground Lisboa lança uma noite em nome próprio, será bimestral e começa sexta-feira, 31 de Janeiro. Depois de já ter sido a casa dos principais promotores locais e palco de festas de alguns dos mais interessantes agitadores internacionais, chega a vez de Inatel, uma noite 100% de curadoria musical VU . Não é a primeira vez que o espaço promove uma noite em nome próprio, as festas Madame e o mítico aniversário do Village que acontece em Maio, são exemplo de festas em que a programação musical fica a cargo do espaço, mas Inatel marca o início de um novo ciclo, e traz à sala indoor do VU um conceito que tem sido esquecido e ultrapassado, pela necessidade de encher lineups. Por isso Inatel será sempre a noite em que brilha apenas 1 DJ (ou uma dupla), durante toda a noite, neste caso, 7 horas. São as All Night Sets do VU, a inaugurar com... Stereo Addiction. Village Underground Lisboa launches its own night promoting something that has been somehow lost in many clubs and nights: the all night sets. DJs playing the opening, the middle and the closing slots, giving them the opportunity to create something special with the audience, a story they want to tell. For the first night, Village Underground has chosen a long time well known techno duo from Lisbon, Stereo Addiction. The duo is Gustavo and John-E who have played together in London, Berlin, Serbia, Japan, Brasil and all the main festivals in Portugal. Gustavo is the producer of all events at Village and is behind the scenes of all the major techno festivals in Portugal including the dance temple at boom festival. As John-E continues to play for the most underground and great parties all over Lisbon. The duo is known for their close friendship and unique complicity, created throughout the more than 25 years playing together, raving dance floors and having fun.

Sexta-feira 31 Janeiro // 23h00-06h00 10€ consumiveis. Próximas: 27 Março, 29 Maio, 25 Setembro, 27 Novembro.

January 31st is Backward Day celebration, the day where the forbidden becomes allowed! You can dance back to front or make a choreography (if you can) but with Dub Tiger, Truke and Groovefella you won’t be able to stop.

31.01.20 MINISTERIUM CLUB Aresta008 - Ferro (VBX) Ferro Thelmo GEAR

Há uma irreverência particular nos sets de Ferro. A influência da música clássica e ficção científica são peças centrais na ousadia rítmica que o DJ holandês leva para a pista de dança, flutuando entre a linha cinzenta que medeia o house music e techno minimal.

A actuar pela primeira vez em Lisboa, no Ministerium Club, Ferro vai mostrar-nos porque é que a sua música nos permite flutuar na pista de dança. Ao seu lado, vão estar Gear e Thelmo, dois dos DJ’s mais relevantes quando falamos de ritmo, qualidade e liberdade criativa.
