BAIRROGRAFIAS aims to show how art can be a vehicle for regenerating the void and the cracks in the city. By void, we mean all the built spaces that are now empty and seemingly obsolete. What we propose is to map these spaces in the Bonfim neighborhood, through walks and conversations with neighbors, and partnerships with academics and elementary school students. We intend to translate these experiences through a poetic and comprehensive, multidimensional and intergenerational portrait of the parish in a radio program that will take place live in one of the spaces discovered during the process and will be broadcast live by Rádio Temporária do Bonfim.

(a)LIVE / not (a)LIVE aims to show how art can be a means of regenerating the void and the cracks in the city. To this end, it proposes mapping all the built spaces that are now empty and seemingly obsolete in the Bonfim neighborhood, through walks and conversations with neighbors, and partnerships with academics and elementary school students. These experiences will also be translated into a poetic and comprehensive, multidimensional and intergenerational portrait of the parish, through a radio program that will take place live in one of the spaces discovered during the process and broadcast, in real time, by Rádio Temporária do Bonfim.

Enxame e o Fuso is a cooperative that aims to offer events that enrich the cultural experience in Porto. The goal is to encourage cultural exchange between local artists, the local public and guest artists from other countries who, in addition to bringing their artistic and cultural vision, also bring new perspectives on the city of Porto and its cultural environment.

This event is the responsibility of the association Enxame e o fuso. More information will be made available by the association itself.
