Until when?
The bakery in Vila Real (PT) designed by Nadir Afonso is not only a fine example of modern architecture, it is (or was) an artistic expression of the master.Today, like so many other works, this building is in danger of disappearing.
We are too busy to see, to think … to act!
How much art must succumb?
Until when this greed?
Will we be happier when we completely erase the memory of our ancestors?
