Coffee Break
AzLab#60 | 14 October 2020
We all know that coffee breaks are an essential part of academic conferences!
AzLab has been a privileged meeting place for more than six years and we have missed it since March. When resuming activities, even in an online format, we wanted to recover the conversations we haven’t had in the past seven months.
For this reason, the first AzLab of this strange new season begins with a coffee break, open to everyone!

Organized in partnership with the National Azulejo Museum, the AzLab’s goal is to uncover new analytical perspectives on issues related to azulejos, and particularly to the study, inventory, collecting, safeguard, creation and dissemination of azulejos.
Throughout more than 10 years, AzLab has taken on different forms. Starting with in-person sessions at the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon, we switched to Zoom sessions during the pandemic and to hybrid sessions afterwards. In the upcoming season (2023-2024), the seminar will take the form of a podcast. Our goal is to discuss azulejos and various related issues, through interviews that promote the dialogue between different protagonists.
