“The series "REMEMBRANCES" comes from the photos I took during three years, at quarterly meetings between artists and writers, poets, Spanish and Portuguese, in a country palace in the north of Portugal, in Fontoura, Valença. Among gardens, large halls, dining rooms, chapel, library, we spent the weekend with talks, conferences, debates, visits to other Spanish cities such as Salamanca and its architecture,...days of cultural exchanges without barriers between border neighbours…….Today, this palace is a hotel. A paradise lost.
