A space about my way, and my choices in Art: Painting, Sculpture, Poetry, for sure. And maybe Music and Dance.Also it’s (maybe) about Landscapes, Churches, Monasteries, of my home country, or another one where my Odissei may take me; or will O keep this to ”A Ilha dos Amores”? I still don’t know.
Philosophy and Religion are essential parts of my Art, as well. In a way, these subjects flow into each other, in another way, I want to be able to have an overwiew, and to keep it organized.
My aproach to Art is that of the painter, of the fighter behing the work. I would deslike it if some people would just come here ”to steal” images for just one ”practical” aim, leaving without a word, as I have experienced. I publish here work with understanding and apreciattion for the artist who has created it – suffered it, you could say it.
I shall see yet how I’m going to coordinate three diferent functions for my three blogs,
A Arte e Kalokagathia
Here you can come to encounter portuguese artists and art; philosophers, writers, poets, musicians, painters…. from Portugal. But also from any other country. I am not choosing acording to country, but to the work in itself. It’s a blog about Art. Simply, I include great work done by people coming from Portugal, which is so often excluded from all books of Art History, and ignored by the dominating culture.
I would love to comunicate with far away people, most of all with people of the countryes where I lived in for quite a long time! England, Germany, Holland… and even … India… but I don’t know how this will take form: as long as I am still studying in Holland, my longing goes most of all to write in portuguese, comunicating with portuguese and Portugal, and in this way, to be able to not be any more as much exhiled from my country, language and amable people, which I miss so much.

And a last very fascinating thing would be to be able to contact Dutch people in a new way. To form a new bridge with them… ! Would that ever be possible?

Mais…come artiste… ce que je veux c’est d’être capable de comunicer avec tout le monde, tous les personne de tous les Pays… les almes qui aussit chante avec la Passion pour la Poesie et le sacrement dans l’Art…
Et vous voyez? C’est pas possible de dire quelque chose simple come ça en anglais. Avec le français, la il y a du chant, du sentiment, du coeur!
