Archive: José Pacheco

José Pacheco (1885-1934) was an architect and painter, and a central figure of the Orpheu generation. He created stage sets for theater, designed covers for important books, and, above all, he directed the magazine Contemporânea, perhaps the best example of modernist graphic art in Portugal. As part of his work with this magazine, he organized exhibitions, conferences and concerts. He was always a unifying and very active figure.
