The exhibition Uncensored Posters takes us back to the historic days of 25 April 1974, and extends through to the intense “Hot Summer” of 1975.

More than just posters, the works on display are visual testimonies to a time of political and social transformation. These posters were salvaged from the walls where they were first displayed and preserved in a portfolio of drawings for over five decades. Reflecting the call for freedom and expressions of both hope and defiance, they capture the essence of a Portugal in motion, newly liberated from censorship. Each piece represents an emerging voice, offering perspectives from the varied political currents of that era.

Exhibition organised in collaboration with WPP Portugal.
