Técnico podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” – The woodcuts

The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) covers the 110 years of history of Instituto Superior Técnico, through its past, present and future objects.

A collection of objects related to different fields, such as science, music, arts and sports, is the starting point for conversations with people who will tell us more about the history of these objects.

A new episode is released every week. The podcast “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) is part of the Público newspaper podcasts.

Today’s episode (#93) – 5th May 2023: “110 Histórias | 110 Objetos” (“110 Stories, 110 Objects”) – “The woodcuts”.

There are eight woodcuts by the architect Miguel Ventura Terra, published in 1916, showing the school’s facilities on a plot of land next to the current Portuguese Parliament, in Lisbon. Due to a series of events, the work commissioned by Alfredo Bensaúde, Técnico’s first director, never happened. More than a decade later, Técnico saw its building rise in Alameda, in a project designed by Porfírio Pardal Monteiro.
