On 18 September 2026, the exhibition \u201cAfter School \u2013 News from Barroso\u201d, by photographer Pauliana Valente Pimentel, will open at the Barroso Ecomuseum \u2013 Espa\u00e7o Padre Fontes, in Montalegre. It is yet another \u2018Rota do Sentir\u2019 project in support of the region.<\/p>\n
Following the debut of works by V\u00e2nia Rovisco, Pedro J\u00f3ia and Rog\u00e9rio Nuno Costa\u2014developed in collaboration with young people from the Terras de Barroso\u2014we now welcome the photographic exhibition by artist Pauliana Valente Pimentel, who explains the origins of this idea in her own words:
\n\u201cTaken in 2025 for the creation of V\u00e2nia Rovisco\u2019s production *A Floresta*, these photographs follow teenagers from Montalegre beyond the confines of the school.<\/p>\n
Between work and leisure, the landscape, the animals and the stone villages, the images capture the way these young people inhabit the region. Tradition is part of their daily lives. It emerges in their gestures, practices and celebrations, coexisting naturally with the contemporary experience of adolescence.<\/p>\n
\u2018After School\u2019 refers to the time when life takes place outside the classroom. The subtitle, \u2018News from Barroso\u2019, pays homage to the newspaper founded by Father Ant\u00f3nio Fontes, which ceased publication twenty years ago. Just as that newspaper bore witness to the Barroso of its time, these photographs bear witness to the Barroso of today through the generation that lives there.”<\/p>\n
With the dedicated support of the municipality of Montalegre and the Ecomuseum team, we have completed another stage of the Rota do Sentir, the development of which is still ongoing. The exhibition \u201cAfter School \u2013 News from Barroso\u201d will be on display from 18 September to 25 October.<\/p>\n
