Collective exhibition of finalists of the Postgraduate Course in Illustration opens on March 1st
Entitled “Aos Papéis”, the collective exhibition of the finalists of the Postgraduate course in Illustration opens on March 1st, at Livraria Baobá, in Lisbon, at 6:00 pm.
“Aos papeles” is a collective exhibition that marks the presentation of the final course work of the students of the Postgraduate Course in Illustration at the School of Arts of the Autonomous University of Lisbon for the academic year 2024/25.
From the four Russian seasons to the attic where everything happens, to the clothesline of Madeiran embroidered tablecloths and the loves and dislikes for food, people, cities, in this exhibition, the students invite you to browse through the illustrated albums, in their most diverse manifestations and understandings, with which, under a free theme, we mark the end of this academic journey which, like so many ends, is also a beginning, of our individual journeys as illustrators and storytellers.
The exhibition features works by Igor Correia, Inês Duarte, Giulia Galindo, Maria Giovanna Mura, Nani Brunini, Sofia Pires, Sofia Luz, Tatiana Fernandes and Yulia Malinina, and is curated by professors Inês Viegas Oliveira and Carolina Celas. Admission is free and the exhibition will be open until April 1.

Círculo School of Arts and Cinema screens “Logistics” (2012), by Erika Magnusson and Daniel Andersson
Erika Magnusson and Daniel Andersson’s “Logistics” (2012) is a Swedish experimental film, widely regarded as the longest ever made, with a running time of 857 hours (35 days and 17 hours). The film follows the life cycle of a pedometer, starting at the point of sale in Stockholm and working its way back through its distribution, production and raw material sourcing. The narrative unfolds in real time, offering a slow meditation on the global supply chain and the vast systems behind everyday consumer goods. By focusing on the mundane yet monumental processes of modern production, “Logistics” invites viewers to rethink their relationship to consumption and time.
The first 8 hours will be shown in person on December 14th, with free admission, at the School of Arts. The full film will be available online from 10:00 am on Sunday, on the School of Arts website.
Cinema Círculo aims to showcase works, formats and geographies that are underrepresented in the current distribution system and cinemas in Lisbon. A cinema that, for one reason or another, finds itself on the margins, without space, outside of a commercial logic that does not aim for profit, but that seeks reflection, debate and critical thinking.
