PrefACE
This guide of Porto is lined by the deviation of the norm of the tourist guide, as a contribution to an unusual guide. With the replacement of photography by drawing, different viewing angles are suggested, in a pursuit of change in the behavior of the spectator of the urban landscape. The travel sketchbook format retains the experiential component, whose travels, collects and reports, drawing from the natural. The drawings come from a certain obsession with observation. Observe and draw is a daily practice in places where step. Especially when I’m alone. Being alone, is not just the result of chance, sometimes it’s a quest to observe and draw with time. During the time of the drawing comes the opportunity to see by the drawing, in a game of emphasis and exclusion. Talking about time of drawing the city of Porto, is also witnessing the torture caused by adverse weather conditions over the winter months, which suggests the idea of ingratitude of the drawing. It seems to be necessary to give the drawing, more than drawing gives us back. This idea is however fleeting, disappears in the same proportion that the drawing appears in the sketchbook. All drawings of the city of Porto were made i n travel sketchbooks along five routes in the city. The same routes are shown in the Guide and explained through maps.
