Joana & Mariana + Catarina Marques: Cooperative Edition
FREE WORKSHOP
4th to 8th November
This workshop’s aim will be to create an experimental and collective publication from the assets of “Cooperativa dos Pedreiros” (Porto 1014–). By analyzing documents, materials and other information, various ways of generating editorial contents will be created in order to develop a portfolio. This portfolio will be built upon formal and technological elements inherent to the production of a whole family of artifacts belonging to the museum of the “Cooperativa”, but also its gathered architectonic patrimony, which defines the landscape of the city, will suit as a teaser for the creation of this edition.
Goal: to edit and reproduce a collective publication from an iconographic and particular universe with technical assistance of Catarina Marques. Publication with 24 to 48 pages, format 17.5x25cm. Each participant will make 2 double pages (2x35x25cm).
