Paulo Alegria

Paulo Alegria (Paulgi), was born in 1970 in Oliveira de Azeméis but he is living and working in Viana do Castelo. He published his first book, a bilingual work entitled Romeiros~Pilgrims in 2010, which is a contemporary portrait of the people who go on pilgrimage to the fair and religious events in Alto Minho (north of Portugal) and all the traditions involved. The following year, he was in charge of the cinematography of Alto do Minho, an ethnographic poetical documentary work on the identity of people from Alto Minho, and he was awarded with the Estação Imagem grant from Mora (south of Portugal), where he developed an intense photographic work close to the population of the municipality of Alentejo, documenting their cultural, sporting, recreational and humanitarian associations, which resulted in the book Lean Culture published in 2012. He graduated in Graphic Design and developed his knowledge in other areas such as Architecture, Visual Arts, Engraving, Screen printing and Photography.
