The Art of Cultural Exchange
Can cultural exchange be understood as a mutual act of translation? Or are elements of a country’s cultural identity inevitably lost in the act of exchange? Brazil and Great Britain, although unlikely collaborators, have shared an artistic dialogue that can be traced back some 500 years. This publication, arising from the namesake research project funded by the United Kingdom’s Arts and Humanities Research Council, seeks to understand and raise awareness of the present practices of cultural exchange between Brazil and Great Britain in relation to their historical legacy. Presenting five case studies and eight position papers, this research-based project investigates how artists interpret...

Performance and Community
Performance practice in community settings is an established part of the cultural landscape. However, this practice is frequently viewed as functional: an intervention that seeks to solve, educate or heal. Performance and Community presents an alternative vision, focussing, instead, on the aesthetic and political ambitions of artists, organisations and cultural producers committed to this area. Through case studies, this edited collection gives unprecedented access to some of the leading organisations in the field, examining their creative processes and placing them in their historical context. In parallel, a series of interviews with individual artists explores their approaches and how they...

Bela
No dia 8 de dezembro de 1930, Florbela Espanca tirou a própria vida. Naquela data completava 36 anos de idade. A vida da poeta foi a de um espírito criativo, insatisfeito, complexo, com laivos de luz e sombra no Portugal na virada do século 20. Esta é tanto uma biografia ficcional, abrindo a porta para as angústias e desejos da poeta, quanto um romance psicológico, envolvente e arrebatador. Poeta que não admitia ser chamada de "poetisa", Florbela foi uma mulher não convencional, uma precursora que ousou viver em toda plenitude, ainda que envolta pela infelicidade. Encontrou na poesia, desde criança, a natural expressão das suas paixões, das suas mágoas, com um erotismo sublime e sempre, sempre da procura do Grande Amor.
