#125 - Gulbenkian Series III

"A comprehensive collection of contemporary art and sculpture has also been acquired over the years, mainly Portuguese but with some works by British artists. This is housed in the José de Azeredo Perdigão Modern Art Centre.Modern Art Centre was opened in 1983 in southern part of the Gulbenkian Park. Ten years later, as a tribute to the Chairman of the Foundation's first Board, it was renamed the José de Azeredo Perdigão Modern Art Centre (CAMJAP).

The CAMJAP building consists of two separate sections: the Modern Art Museum, which comprises three interconnected galleries, and a space for cultural events, including a multi-purpose room for events and meetings. A reception hall with a cafeteria and bookshop links these premises." [*]

#37 - Maxime

Maxime was a luxury cabaret, there came the King of Spain and elements of the great Portuguese families. In recent times was delivered to the underworld of prostitution. Then through a more dubious stage, but reborn from the ashes with a new environment, that a certain charm "decadent-chic" with a dynamic schedule, concerts, stand-up comedy and other events. Manuel Joao Vieira (vocalist of Ena Pá 2000 and Irmãos Catita) took the reins to Maxime and recovered the real joy in this institution of the Praça da Alegria (Plaza of Joy) that is in fashion again and shaking the Lisbon nights.
