The exhibit "O Coliseu e a Cidade: 75 Anos de Histórias" [Coliseu and the City: 75 Years of Stories], will be on show at the City Hall lobby till 19th January.

Inspired by the aesthetic value of artist Piet Mondrian, the display demonstrates the modernist items that are part of the Coliseu Porto acquis, and also elements from the Municipal Archive and the Portuguese Photography Centre collection, some being shown for the first time. 

This is an opportunity to evoke unique moments in the Coliseu Porto history in the areas of architecture, cinema, music or circus.

The exhibit is curated by Eduardo Paz Barroso, President of the Association of Friends of the Coliseu Porto and it is a co-production with Porto City Hall.

The presentation will be on show until 19 January 2018 and it can be visited from Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm.
