About Us

Our history

“An initiative of such high quality in terms of creativity. There was a concern to invent something that wasn’t a mere repetition of an act of homage, something was really invented. (…) Manuel Andrade put what’s there on its feet, I mean it’s an emotion, it was as if I was discovering myself. If it wasn’t Manuel Andrade, something could have been done, but not this…” – José Saramago.
