Within this project, thousands of articles and other texts published in the portuguese architectural periodical press of the 20th century were collected and analyzed in a systematic survey. This fruitful work, conducted in close association with the national College of Architects, is about the relationship between architecture itself and its critical perception, as expressed in specialized published reviews, that become both a source of knowledge and a powerful instrument to shape taste and influence the course of architecture itself. It produced a database, as a result of the thorough analysis of 27 magazines, 3 books, 29 papers, 20 international communications, 10 sessions of debates in 2 cycles (Cover/Themes and Agents). As a highlight of this multidisciplinary work, an international conference took place, under the same name of the project, held in Lisbon in September 2015. This study will become an important milestone and unavoidable reference for the study of portuguese modern architectural culture. A PhD. thesis was initially presented as an expected indicator but it was not realised. No mention or justification of this unfulfillment was provided in the final report.

This project of international scope, coordinated by Joana Cunha Leal, involving the researchers Alexandra Cardoso, Alexandra Trevisan, Antoni Remesar, Maria Helena Maia, Mariana Pinto dos Santos and Silvia Vieira de Almeida, and the scholarship students Begoña Farre and Joana Couto, set out to explore and review the dominant definition of Modernism, in the light of its stylistic components and self-referentiality, formal autonomy and representation abandonment, using artistic ‘cases’ of the 20 and 30’th years of the last century in the field of Catalan architecture, and also the Greek, Italian and Portuguese architecture, based on the thesis that “modernism of southern Europe” potentiated indeed a rooting in the vernacular culture in the light of the so-called “critical regionalism”. The scientific results of the project in terms of the conferences, publications with ‘referee’ in dedicated journals, and scientific conference proceedings, among others, show high quality and correspond, in general, the targets set in the project. Noteworthy is, in short, in the light of the results data to the press and congress that took place under his aegis, the cross-disciplinary nature of this research, which joined the History of Art and Architecture in Documentary Photography, the heuristic search of written sources published or handwritten, and Art Criticism and other historiography, a sense of cross-cutting approaches, to better understand and characterize the artistic creation and the visual culture of the times in question and the geographical areas studied. Thus contributed through scientific publications and international conferences that produced, and that the report lists the duly problematize the concept and practice of Modernism from their understanding and their experiences in Southern Europe.
