CV and life history
At the age of 15 my mother and my father took the family to a
car trip around Europe where I got to know the Italian renaissance
masters, Brunelleschi, Michel Angelo, Leonardo da Vinci... this
touched me deeply; they were a model for me as in my view, more than
painters, sculptors or architects they were brilliant and
intelligent creative men. Still in this trip we visited the Van Gogh
Museum where I remember a wicked artist drawing, while looking at
Van Gogh's drawings while listening to the sound of boats in the
ocean;
The Stedelijk Museum was my first contact with modern
art and where I experienced my first interactive sculpture. I got
deeply impressed with the work The Beanery by Edward Kienholz, I
still remember it now.
I start studying photography at the age of 16 in the
Portuguese Photography Institute (http://www.ipf.pt/
) and visit the exhibition Composite Polaroids by David Hockney in
Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon; this exhibition showed me that
photography was a fine art at the same level as of painting and sculpture.
in 1985 I win a national prize in a Photography
Contest with Eduardo Gageiro president of the jury ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduardo_Gageiro
)
Some public presentations using photography and slide shows
in public spaces like, bars and art schools.
in 1987 I start my studies in Oporto Architecture University ( http://sigarra.up.pt/faup_uk/WEB_PAGE.INICIAL ) to become an architect, the reason: get the only diploma needed in the creative field, after the first 3 years in Oporto I move to Lisbon Architecture University where I finish my degree ( http://www.fa.utl.pt/?option=com_content&task=view&id=527&Itemid=82 )
