Quintas de Leitura

Drawing inspiration from a verse by António José Fortes, we presented brilliant individuals from the Portuguese cultural scene with a simple, unpretentious exercise: to reveal a bright, magical, furious poem that would move and disarm us, that would “lift us with the eyes”. The principle of this session is precisely the unveiling of all those poetic choices, some of which are surprising. Just like that: the poetic choices of about thirty public figures and as many poems in a celebration in which the words are at the wheel. An invitation to poetry, freedom and personal imagination.
