Arnaldo Macedo,

Apreciador das obras surrealistas de Salvador Dali, cunho que aplica nas suas telas, desde cedo o artista vizelense descobriu o gosto pela arte de pintar, assumindo a pintura “como uma escapatória aos percalços da vida”.

Depois de expor em várias localidades fora do concelho, Arnaldo Macedo tem agora a oportunidade de mostrar as suas obras na Fundação Jorge Antunes, esperando que os vizelenses sejam apreciadores do seu trabalho.

"Entre as tintas e as palavras" de Arnaldo Macedo estará patente naquele local até dia 04 de Junho.

ARMÉNIO SÁ PREPARA REGRESSO EM FORÇA AO MUNDO DAS ARTES

Autor: Redaccao em Quinta-feira, 5 Novembro 2009

Arménio Sá é um dos pintores vimaranenses que mais fielmente tem retratado Guimarães. Exemplo disso é uma aguarela da praça da Oliveira em 1845, local perto do qual nasceu. A sua incursão nas artes começa como desenhador têxtil ao longo de 23 anos, seguida de nove anos a conceber jóias. Possui cursos de desenho em construção civil, fotografia e cinema, gestão de design e formação formadores, mas, desde 1996, é a pintura que melhor o define.Com um estilo inconfundível, Arménio Sá – que arrastou multidões para a sua exposição sobre “Figuras Típicas de Guimarães”, realizada na Sociedade Martins Sarmento em 1998 e  para a exposição, no mesmo local, das gravuras contidas no livro de Lino Moreira da Silva “A Alma e Graça das Festas Nicolinas “, em 2000,  estranhamente, a partir de 2001, desapareceu da cena artística vimaranense.

O NG resolveu saber o que é feito do artista, apesar das suas breves aparições, de 2003 a 2008, na “Exposição Colectiva de Artistas Vimaranenses na Oficina S. José e, na iniciativa “Um Dia pela Vida, no corrente ano.

Ficamos a saber que, por questões pessoais, Arménio Sá decidiu isolar-se um pouco em sua casa, onde tem “espaço para pintar, um terraço com vista para a Penha com uma luz extraordinária e um atelier amplo.” Um local, onde o artista nos recebeu e mostrou estar “bem vivo. Continuo a viver na Cruz da Argola, em frente ao restaurante Baptista e tenho-me mantido sempre activo, mas não tão publicamente. Não emigrei, como muita gente pensa”. Antes pelo contrário, neste momento, Arménio Sá vai aparecer em força com uma série de projectos.
