Atlante

Daily Dose From now to your death 1319 | Atlante Atlante ( http://www.atlante.pt ) is a photographic project by Francisco Ascensão and Luca Bosco. The selection of images presented here include extracts of the series "Porto Brutalista", published by Circo de Ideias and edited by Pedro Baía and Magda Seifert, which brings together a selection of 20 works situated in Porto, Gaia and Matosinhos, to propose new ways of interpreting an architecture produced with constructive and material affinities associated with Brutalism. “An atlas is a book or a place where nature and culture are conventionally pictured: mountains, lakes, pyramids, oceans, cities, villages, stars, islands. In this set of signs and captions, we can find where we live, where we’d like to go, the path we can follow.” Luigi Ghirri, atlante, charta, 1973 (foreword). Thanks to Luca Bosco .
