Opened in 2013, the Georges Dussaud Photography Centre is dedicated to the french photographer Georges Dussaud, and to the photography in general.
It is located in the first floor of the Paulo Quintela building, presenting a unique collection of the notorious photographer together with temporary exhibitions. Georges Dussaud has carried out his work about our country since 1980, focusing mostly on Trás-os-Montes.
The impressive black and white pictures portray life stories, the untouched rural universe and the villages where men, women and children once lived.
They depict stories of places, experiences, hard-working people, rituals, gestures, and unrepeatable moments that belong to an unspoiled Trás-os-Montes.
