CALDEIRA 213

		(1999/2001…)
		was a self-organized and independent artist-cooperative housed in an old 
		building in Oporto’s historical Center that provided studios where independent 
		artists carried out their work.
		Apart of this, Caldeira213 ran an exhibition program, with a broad range of 
		activities and manifestations.

		“The Caldeira 213 association was established by young artists of several
		areas, in January/2000, to:
		The autonomous creation and administration of a versatile creative place
		where one can redefine the current concept of art exhibition/exposition. A
		place where the production and exhibition of contemporary art is possible,
		apart from all the institutionalised or commercial places;
		To promote a wide net of contacts among creators from all the spheres of
		the artistic world, having in mind a collective productive effectiveness to
		deepen the artistic and descriptive dialogs already existent and to
		(re)launch other debates.” 
 		«… the worst thing happening at the moment is that there is just time or
		speed or the passage of time, but there is no space. It is necessary to
		create spaces and occupy them, against this acceleration (…). The winners
		have never produced culture.»	(Heiner Müller)
