David de Almeida
David de Almeida was born in 1945. He attended the António Arroio School, the Lithographic Engraver Course, and the Cooperative Society of Engravers. He interned at the Moinhos do Vale do Lagat in France, specializing in handmade paper making. He studied Holography at Goldsmiths University of London and interned with Stanley Hayter at Atelier 17 in Paris. He carried out several interventions in public spaces in cities such as São Paulo, Macau, and Lisbon.
His engraving work is effectively tactile and visual, originating from the world of senses, with an emphasis on the search for a certain primitivism in the use of colors and lines. The reliefs and counter-reliefs, the incidence of tonalities, the line or shape brought to its plastic essence, make David de Almeida one of the most prominent Portuguese engravers.
In 1997, he was awarded the title of Commander of the Order of Infante D. Henrique.
He passed away in 2014.
