"When we walk in the Botanical Garden, we feel a certain peace, a silence that invites to the introspection. We walk. We stop. We look. We continue in the plain discovery of the space. Sophia de Mello Breyner Andersen portrays it in her tale "A Fada Oriana", the keeper of a place that turns it full of harmony until the day that she discovers herself in the reflection of the river - lake - a looses herself, leaving the forest to the abandon. Almost as we find it nowadays, a garden so quiet and silent."
 
About this archive:

The creation of Cityzines collection intends to strengthen and promote the study and dissemination of author’s editions and other publications linked to the theme of architecture, city and territory, where the image and photography are present in a significant way, with a special interest and focus on the multifaceted richness of urban, architectural and visual culture that characterizes the urban agglomerations and their experiences.
This collection started with a survey more focused on the Portuguese context, but also integrates publications from other countries with a view to internationalization of the project.
The publications that will constitute this collection of the Cityzines project will be cataloged from the following general theme:

Artistic and Documentary Photography: Architecture, City and Territory

It was decided to start this collection by topic A1 - Artistic Photography and Documentary: Architecture, City and Territory, for reasons connected with only two facts: first there is at this time, a greater number of alternative publications pertaining to this topic, according by the fact that they had already been there longer subject specific study through the work of the research line City spaces and Culture of the CCRE group.

As we will see next, we have adopted a sub-theme structure in order to organize the field of alternative publications, covering several areas and formats, as previously described in the general theme of Documentary and Artistic Photography: Architecture, City and Territory. Even though all sub-themes show differences between them, they all fit the general theme and they have in common the focus and the importance given to image/photography, as well as the innovative and/or irreverent stance.

"Ao visitarmos o espaço (Jardim Botânico do Porto) achámos que a pequena casa abandonada e a forma como a natureza se apoderou dela poderia ser um tema interessantes para o trabalho. Assim, a nossa narrativa visual vai retratar aquele espaço da casa e do pequeno jardim em frente, com um lago. O nosso objectivo é mostrar de que forma a vegetação foi, ao longo do tempo, tomando conta daqueles espaços e criando ambientes completamente diferentes. Os espaços ganham uma nova vida com a sua presença. É essa a ideia que queremos transmitir com as nossas fotografias."



Sobre este arquivo:

A criação da colecção Cityzines pretende fortalecer e promover a divulgação e estudo de edições de autor e outras publicações ligadas à temática de arquitectura, cidade e território, onde a imagem e a fotografia estão presentes de forma significativa, existindo um especial interesse e enfoque sobre a riqueza multifacetada da cultura urbana, arquitectónica e visual que caracteriza os aglomerados urbanos e as suas vivências.
A colecção iniciou com um levantamento mais focalizado no contexto português, mas também  integra publicações de outros países com vista à internacionalização do projecto.
As publicações que vão constituir esta colecção do projecto Cityzines serão catalogadas a partir do seguinte tema geral:
 
Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território
 
Decidiu-se iniciar esta colecção pelo tema Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território, por razões que se prendem apenas com dois factores: primeiro o de existir, neste momento, um maior número de publicações alternativas associados a este tema, segundo, por estas terem sido há mais tempo objecto de estudo específico do trabalho desenvolvido pela linha de investigação Espaços de Cidade e Cultura do grupo CCRE.
 
Como veremos de seguida, adoptámos uma estrutura de sub-categorias de forma a organizar o campo das publicações, cobrindo diversas áreas e formatos. Ainda que algumas sub-categorias apresentem diferenças entre si, todos eles encaixam no tema geral e têm em comum a importância e foco na imagem/fotografia, assim como um carácter de investigação e/ou a postura inovadora.
 
Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território

Edições de Autor e outras Publicações periódicas (A1.PaP)

 
- em termos gerais, publicações periódicas que reflectem e investigam, através da imagem e/ou fotografia, e de forma critica, exploratória e inovadora as temáticas da arquitectura, cidade e território;
 
- Fanzines, little magazines de fotografia: publicações independentes e não-tradicionais onde a fotografia é particularmente usada como o principal instrumento visual e meio para perceber, compreender e analisar não só a arquitetura mas também o modo como as pessoas vivem e se apropriam de diversos lugares; 

- publicações periódicas de contracultura ou não-tradicionais dedicadas à fotografia social e documental ou contemporânea e outras publicações relacionadas.
 
Edições de Autor e outras Publicações não periódicas (A1.nPaP)
 
- em termos gerais, publicações que reflectem e investigam ,através da imagem e / ou fotografia, e de forma critica, exploratória e inovadora as temáticas da arquitectura, cidade e território;
 
- foto-livros e/ou livros de artista especificamente relacionados com o universo da arquitectura: publicações independentes e não-tradicionais onde a fotografia é particularmente usada como o principal instrumento visual e meio para perceber, compreender e analisar não só a arquitetura mas também o modo como as pessoas vivem e se apropriam de diversos lugares;
 
- foto-livros ou/e livros de artista mais relacionados com fotografia documental.
 
 
Pretendemos, com esta colecção, promover a consciencialização e a reflexão sobre a arte e a fotografia documental, relativamente à sua concepção como instrumento para questionar o universo da Arquitectura, da Cidade e do Território. Isto significa entender a Arquitectura como uma disciplina e uma prática extensivas, com interesse, por um lado, pelo espaço real e suas experiências, explorando novas formas espaciais e códigos arquitectónicos e, por outro, pelo modo como a arquitectura opera no âmbito de sistemas mais vastos: socio-culturais, técnicos e históricos.
 
A colecção física debruçar-se-á predominantemente sobre objectos impressos portugueses, mas também integra publicações de outros países e constituirá uma mostra/ exposição que irá viajar por vários locais, em Portugal e no estrangeiro. Este catálogo de Edições de Autor e outras Publicações apoiará a divulgação do universo destas publicações, funcionando também como uma referência para localizar publicações com carácter de investigação/estudo e/ou não-tradicionais relevantes e independentes relacionadas com a Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território.

"Unlike a wood or a forest, the botanical garden of Porto is organized and settled according to a rational drawing (romantic garden from the XIXth century in front of the Villa Andersen...).
Indeed, all the botanical species that are in the garden take place in a built environment made of retaining walls, of trimmed hedges, of deep visual perspectives, pavements, equipments...
All these elements consist in a part of urban in the natural environment of the garden. These series of photographs show the contrast between this free and muddled nature and the strict geometry of its organization."

The Shanghai visual series of Tiago Casanova constitute a personal united vision of a certain light and architecture that inhabits this important Far East city in China. Composed by a set of very plastic and poetic images, which escape traditional perspective representation, they convey Shanghai’s architecture and meaning through the abstract light, form, ambience and imagination of Tiago’s lens. At the same time, these images cause a strange and strong impression on us, and I suspect this has to do with the tension that exists between what we see and what we can imagine in them. The result is recognising on those nonrepresentational images simultaneously known and unknown patterns and meanings. In fact, the city is framed within an abstract and poetic view, disturbing the way we normally see architecture and, in this sense, it tries to go beyond “representation”.

Pedro Leão Neto, 2010

It was decided to start this collection by topic A1 - Artistic Photography and Documentary: Architecture, City and Territory, for reasons connected with only two facts: first there is at this time, a greater number of alternative publications pertaining to this topic, according by the fact that they had already been there longer subject specific study through the work of the research line City spaces and Culture of the CCRE group.


As we will see next, we have adopted a sub-theme structure in order to organize the field of alternative publications, covering several areas and formats, as previously described in the general theme of Documentary and Artistic Photography: Architecture, City and Territory. Even though all sub-themes show differences between them, they all fit the general theme and they have in common the focus and the importance given to image/photography, as well as the innovative and/or irreverent stance.

"How many perspectives does the Nature have of herself during the day?
The path may be lonely between the growing vegetation of the Garden, the buildings between trees, bushes and small plants that, depending on the clarity, diffuse through many tones. The goal of this narrative binds itself by visualising the shadow that exists in the thought path from the small abandoned house to the exit gate."

"My visual narrative goes by a photographic register of the Botanic Garden's paths. Through a look of the surrounding space, I didn't want to limit myself by photographing what I understand as obvious from the spot, but recording a journey to that obvious. Through a selection of images, I entend to communicate the idea of path and trajectories needed to the discovery of the site, tauting a certain curiosity for the space. I tried to square the images in a perspective that would provoque that sense of curiosity, in a way of taunting in the observator the will of roaming and understanding the space beyond of his own paths.
The choice of the images in black and white was thought in order to privilege the narrative, having the paths themselves as light and shadow would create more impact on the photography, trying, on the other hand, to earn a certain visual balance."

"Ricardo and Francisca are the owners of the house at the 'D. João IV' street, a bourgeois house of the XIX century. He is an architect, and his wife is a history teacher. Having decided to move out of the city center, they rented their own house. I live here, and with me their memories. Family pictures, anciente objects, books, musical instruments. All that at a time served them to build their own ambience, their "domesticity", remained. It is a part of my space, and even though that do not belongs to me, it makes me feel at home.
The narrative sequence that I present, tries to communicate "my journey", from the outside to the inside of the house, showing the intimate coexistence between me and the memories of the owners."

Sobre este arquivo:

A criação da colecção Cityzines pretende fortalecer e promover a divulgação e estudo de edições de autor e outras publicações ligadas à temática de arquitectura, cidade e território, onde a imagem e a fotografia estão presentes de forma significativa, existindo um especial interesse e enfoque sobre a riqueza multifacetada da cultura urbana, arquitectónica e visual que caracteriza os aglomerados urbanos e as suas vivências.
A colecção iniciou com um levantamento mais focalizado no contexto português, mas também  integra publicações de outros países com vista à internacionalização do projecto.
As publicações que vão constituir esta colecção do projecto Cityzines serão catalogadas a partir do seguinte tema geral:
 
Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território
 
Decidiu-se iniciar esta colecção pelo tema Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território, por razões que se prendem apenas com dois factores: primeiro o de existir, neste momento, um maior número de publicações alternativas associados a este tema, segundo, por estas terem sido há mais tempo objecto de estudo específico do trabalho desenvolvido pela linha de investigação Espaços de Cidade e Cultura do grupo CCRE.
 
Como veremos de seguida, adoptámos uma estrutura de sub-categorias de forma a organizar o campo das publicações, cobrindo diversas áreas e formatos. Ainda que algumas sub-categorias apresentem diferenças entre si, todos eles encaixam no tema geral e têm em comum a importância e foco na imagem/fotografia, assim como um carácter de investigação e/ou a postura inovadora.
 
Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território

Edições de Autor e outras Publicações periódicas (A1.PaP)

 
- em termos gerais, publicações periódicas que reflectem e investigam, através da imagem e/ou fotografia, e de forma critica, exploratória e inovadora as temáticas da arquitectura, cidade e território;
 
- Fanzines, little magazines de fotografia: publicações independentes e não-tradicionais onde a fotografia é particularmente usada como o principal instrumento visual e meio para perceber, compreender e analisar não só a arquitetura mas também o modo como as pessoas vivem e se apropriam de diversos lugares; 

- publicações periódicas de contracultura ou não-tradicionais dedicadas à fotografia social e documental ou contemporânea e outras publicações relacionadas.
 
Edições de Autor e outras Publicações não periódicas (A1.nPaP)
 
- em termos gerais, publicações que reflectem e investigam ,através da imagem e / ou fotografia, e de forma critica, exploratória e inovadora as temáticas da arquitectura, cidade e território;
 
- foto-livros e/ou livros de artista especificamente relacionados com o universo da arquitectura: publicações independentes e não-tradicionais onde a fotografia é particularmente usada como o principal instrumento visual e meio para perceber, compreender e analisar não só a arquitetura mas também o modo como as pessoas vivem e se apropriam de diversos lugares;
 
- foto-livros ou/e livros de artista mais relacionados com fotografia documental.
 
 
Pretendemos, com esta colecção, promover a consciencialização e a reflexão sobre a arte e a fotografia documental, relativamente à sua concepção como instrumento para questionar o universo da Arquitectura, da Cidade e do Território. Isto significa entender a Arquitectura como uma disciplina e uma prática extensivas, com interesse, por um lado, pelo espaço real e suas experiências, explorando novas formas espaciais e códigos arquitectónicos e, por outro, pelo modo como a arquitectura opera no âmbito de sistemas mais vastos: socio-culturais, técnicos e históricos.
 
A colecção física debruçar-se-á predominantemente sobre objectos impressos portugueses, mas também integra publicações de outros países e constituirá uma mostra/ exposição que irá viajar por vários locais, em Portugal e no estrangeiro. Este catálogo de Edições de Autor e outras Publicações apoiará a divulgação do universo destas publicações, funcionando também como uma referência para localizar publicações com carácter de investigação/estudo e/ou não-tradicionais relevantes e independentes relacionadas com a Fotografia Documental e Artística: Arquitectura, Cidade e Território.

"The idea of my cell starts with the intersection of simple geometric plans, having as goal the gathering of people in a space that is both to relax and to study. The place of implantation was other problem that came up, but it proposes itself with the continuity of a pre-existence, the bench of the bar zone. What is interesting in my work is the reinterpretation of a program already existing of the space of reunion and the adding of the ability to shelter people. The cell offers both the capacity of work and social interaction."

About this archive:


The creation of Cityzines collection intends to strengthen and promote the study and dissemination of author’s editions and other publications linked to the theme of architecture, city and territory, where the image and photography are present in a significant way, with a special interest and focus on the multifaceted richness of urban, architectural and visual culture that characterizes the urban agglomerations and their experiences.
This collection started with a survey more focused on the Portuguese context, but also integrates publications from other countries with a view to internationalization of the project.
The publications that will constitute this collection of the Cityzines project will be cataloged from the following general theme:


Artistic and Documentary Photography: Architecture, City and Territory

It was decided to start this collection by topic A1 - Artistic Photography and Documentary: Architecture, City and Territory, for reasons connected with only two facts: first there is at this time, a greater number of alternative publications pertaining to this topic, according by the fact that they had already been there longer subject specific study through the work of the research line City spaces and Culture of the CCRE group.


As we will see next, we have adopted a sub-theme structure in order to organize the field of alternative publications, covering several areas and formats, as previously described in the general theme of Documentary and Artistic Photography: Architecture, City and Territory. Even though all sub-themes show differences between them, they all fit the general theme and they have in common the focus and the importance given to image/photography, as well as the innovative and/or irreverent stance.

Artistic and Documentary Photography: Architecture, City and Territory



Periodical Author’s editions and other publications (A1.PaP)
- In general terms, periodical publications that reflect and investigate, through the image and /or photography, and in a critical, exploratory and innovative way, the themes of architecture, city and territory;
 
- fanzines, little magazines on photography: independent non mainstream publications where photography is used as the main visual instrument to perceive, understand and analyze architecture and how people live and appropriate diverse places;

- counterculture or non-mainstream publications focused on social and documentary or contemporary photography and related issues;
 
Non-periodical Author’s editions and other publications (A1.nPaP)
- In general terms, periodical publications that reflect and investigate, through the image and /or photography, and in a critical, exploratory and innovative way, the themes of architecture, city and territory;



- photo-books or/and artist books specifically more related to the universe of architecture: independent non mainstream publications where photography is used as the main visual instrument to perceive, understand and analyze architecture and how people live and appropriate diverse places;



- photo-books or /and artist books more related with documentary photography.


With this collection we intend to promote awareness and reflection upon art and documentary photography in regard to its conception as a tool to question Architecture, City and Territory. This means understanding Architecture as a broad subject and practice interested in, on the one hand, the real space and its experiences, exploring new spatial forms and architectural codes and, on the other hand, in how architecture operates within larger systems: sociocultural, technical, and historical systems.



The physical collection will focus on Portuguese printed objects only and it will work as a showcase travelling across several places in Portugal and abroad. This catalogue of Author’s editions and other publications will suport its dissemination, being also an important international tool to locate relevant and independent non-mainstream publications related to Artistic Photography and Documentary: Architecture, City and Territory.

"By definition, photography is, essencialy, a tecnique of images criation through luminous exposition, that reflects through a lens and allows the capture of images that are somewhat the loyal reflection of reality through the subjective look of the photographer.
Through this devide, the photography is also the somewhat loyal reflection of human nature, the fixation of reality, over a real and permanent support, from an furtive instant.
Therefore, we can say that photography allows us too a reflection of our identity and of reality of things."

“After this issue, number 13, a pause - until 2009.
The story of Purple, since the publication of Purple Prose number 1 in October 1992, was, throughout the years, the object of multiple changes - of title, format, content.
I've always considered that the magazine (or reviews) I publish should follow the course of my existence, that, in no way, should they become an institution, a job, or an end in themselves.
Purple Journal, in its new format, its new cycle of publication, will be published far from France.

Cota: A1.nPaP.1031

“Punkto is a (ir)regular, (un)predictable and (un)disciplined magazine about limits: of practice, of theory, of political, of architecture.
Punktos are points. Are events. Are the little intersection points of those limits. Crossing-points of pratices, limit-points of information, word-points of invention. Points to see. 

The point is not an unit, is a tension, a force that provides the appearance of a space, a moment that something touches, a disturb of the surface, a feature, a movement, a violent opening in direction of the exterior. Any point will always be a vanishing point. 
At the constrution of the critic (as a way from where I can see) only the point allows that, in its nothing and in its all, something arises and something exists, attacking and approaching the space and (un)discipline (un)quietness."
