Artists in Portugal are
in a critical situation.
Protest against the European Policies of Austerity against Portugal and their Artists. The existing government extinguished the ministry of culture and is increasingly impoverishing the Portuguese People.
Artists are burning their art refusing to fade out.
We build the first International Online Residency Program without any governement support.

It is our duty still to endeavor to avoid war; but if it shall actually take place, no matter by whom brought on, we must defend ourselves. If our house be on fire, without inquiring whether it was fired from within or without, we must try to extinguish it.

The European Policies of Austerity against Portugal are killing what was left of a culture after forty one years of dictatorship.
The revolution was political.
Never social. Portuguese culture is dying with their artists and people.
A project iniciated by the visual artist Joao Galrao, developed with fellow creator Joao Vilhena, and counting with many followers update here, will keep on burning their art.
