COLEÇÕES 2 . ANTÓNIO CARMELO AIRES
The book Coleções #2 – António Carmelo Aires presents one of the most interesting private collections of Portuguese folk art today. Born in Redondo, Alentejo, Carmelo Aires began collecting at a young age, showing interest in various types of objects. However, it was the material culture of his homeland that captivated him most, leading him to assemble a remarkable collection of Redondo pottery, pastoral art and traditional kitchen utensils.
Portuguese Houses With History
This book pays homage to a memory, a Portuguese way of being and a cultural identity that is disappearing with the massification of design, objects and furniture. We hope it raises awareness to what we feel is most valuable about these homes: that heritage is precious, that it is part of our history and must be preserved.
