The Associação de Amigos da Praça do Anjo and the artists Carla Cruz and Ângelo Ferreira de Sousa have the pleasure to invite you for the project:

" LISBOA SQUARE - Former Anjo Square"
That will take place at the space Apêndice, 16th of January 2007, 15h.

In the year 2006, 21st December, a police report informed:

"The PJ, Porto, proceeded, in the night of yesterday to the detention of two individuals, presumed authors of the crime of theft and dealing – occurred in the night before - , of a bronze statue representing a feminine figure denominated “the Angel” by the Master José Rodrigues, that was implanted at Lisboa square, Porto, being the work in question recovered already cut for foundry.

The arrested were presented to the authorities for first interrogation and application of the necessary measures.”

The crime that took by surprise the city’s people will now be remembered in a tour that will attempt to contextualize the gone art work in it’s architectonical and social surroundings. It is requested to the interested not to arrive after the scheduled hour, for they will be taken on a guided tour to the ruins of the space, that on a first step, picked it’s name from a green market, but in more recent times was called "Clérigos Shopping".
