Synopsis:
A escola da noite was the winning work of the sixth edition of the CGAC Prize for Research and Essay on Contemporary Art, organized by the Regional Ministry for Culture, Education, Vocational Training and Universities in 2023.
In this essay, Aitor Hernández Marcos outlines a compelling intellectual autobiography shaped by key references from philosophy, cinema, and world literature. Written at the intersection of essay, criticism, and diary, the book offers a personal journey through major figures of modern and contemporary culture, ranging from Filippo Marinetti, Gordon Matta-Clark, Bas Jan Ader, and Derek Jarman to Andrei Tarkovsky, Leo Tolstoy, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Susan Sontag, and Angélica Liddell.
