dc.description.abstractGraphically manipulated photographs were frequently used to illustrate the impact of the projected building on the existing cityscape or landscape, in particular, in those cases, where the projects had a monumental scale. We discouvered two sorts of documents at Teófilo Rego Archive: on the one hand, the collages and photomontages made by architects and photographed by Teófilo Rego; on the other hand, collages and photomontages made by Teófilo Rego at the commission of architects, a work whose depth seems to indicate the collaboration, a free, curious and imaginative spirit of research and the deepening of the formal and expressive hypothesis proportionated by the commission. In the second group are included the photographs of four projects of the International Competition for the monument to the Infante D. Henrique in Sagres, 1954/1957. The photomontages and collages contained in the specification and in the draft’s process submitted by João Andresen, and the photomontages of the projects by Nadir Afonso and Manuel da Silva Passos Junior must have been a form of project impact statement from their authors, and certainly represent a period of great creativity as concerns Teófilo Rego. All photomontages by Teófilo Rego are constructed images, the result of a rational being, but are also emotional. As his gaze approaches the models, the images become abstract, and deviate from a possible illusion of reality. Whereas the compositions on the territory and the monument demanded a certain expressive naturalism more than realism, it is the geometric abstraction of architectural form that prevails in the close-ups.pt_PT
