O #MeToo é um dos movimentos feministas impulsionado pelo digital e com expressão glocal. Tornado viral através do Twitter, rapidamente ganhou visibilidade nos media tradicionais trazendo para a esfera pública a discussão de temas associados ao assédio e violência sexual. Tomando como ponto de partida a expressão pública nos media tradicionais do movimento #MeToo em Portugal entre 2017 e 2022, e com base numa metodologia qualitativa ancorada numa análise temática de 91 artigos de opinião dos jornais Expresso e Público, este artigo visa conhecer as especificidades do contexto português em torno das questões que envolvem o #MeToo e analisar as temáticas que foram evidenciadas nestes espaços. Ressalta-se o surgimento de três grandes temáticas: Assédio e Violência Sexual; Questionamento da (re)vitimização e normalização; Ambivalência dos feminismos no movimento #MeToo. Dos resultados, destaca-se a existência de discursos paradoxais sobre o movimento, os quais, por um lado, contribuem para a sua descredibilização, e, por outro, funcionam como motores para a consciencialização pública em torno das questões da violência e do assédio. Concluímos que os artigos de opinião têm o poder de influência tanto na cristalização de determinadas posições, como na mudança de atitudes e comportamentos da esfera pública, sendo estes promovidos pela autoridade e legitimidade de quem faz opinião nos jornais e tem a capacidade para tematizar o espaço público.

Cinema’s pedagogical essence nurtures a variety of educational strategies. Beyond serving as a support to other areas of knowledge or as the subject of artistic analysis, it also provides students with a means to give – freely and significantly – voice to their own concerns and interests. Short film production in schools can offer a process for young people to deal with personal and social challenges, fostering a closer connection between them and their community and environment. Schools are natural habitats for this encounter – a place where film production can generate significant educational and cultural resonance. This paper reflects on the didactic potential of short film production in schools – as a key to fulfil formal and non-formal pedagogical goals – through the presentation and analysis of a recently implemented methodology for education through film: Olhar pela Lente, a project developed in Portugal during 2018.

Vinyl paints have been used by Portuguese artists at least since the early sixties, and the performance of these paints regarding it's stability in the long term and, consequently adequate preventive measures and treatment is presently a subject of intense research and a major concern for conservators. Atomic Force Microscopy was been successfully used in former studies on the effects of photodegradation and of selected cleaning methods on the surface of vinyl paints. [1] In this work we present the first results of an ongoing research on the materials used in the White Paintings of the Portuguese artist Julião Sarmento (b.1948). In the 90's Sarmento started to work on monochromatic white and textured backgrounds where black figures are depicted. His paints are homemade and consist of Cenógrafa ® dry pigment mixed with an aqueous dispersion of a PVAc homopolymer, sold under the name Vulcano V7 ® . The white pigment is a mixture of lithopone with calcium carbonate and the black is a mixture of black iron oxide, a carbon-based black and calcium carbonate. All the materials were bought from the producer the Favrel Lisbonense, a Portuguese fine arts materials company. Information regarding the present state of conservation of these paintings frequently mentions yellowing of the paint and dirt deposition on the surface. Three types of samples are being studied. 1) Laboratory reproductions where the paints are applied on glass micro slides and are artificially aged under a xenon irradiation. 2) A reproduction on canvas prepared by the artist in 2010, with the materials and techniques used in the 90s. 3) A white background on canvas, naturally aged as was kept at his studio since 1987-89. In this paper we present the first findings on: 1) the evaluation of changes on the morphology of the paint surface due to aging and 2) comparison between laboratory paint samples aging and real paint samples. AFM images were obtained in the tapping mode on areas of 50x50µm and 10x10µm. Images of the artificially aged unpigmented homopolymer show a more irregular surface when compared to the unaged sample. Moreover the roughness value increases slightly. On the other hand, the surface of the black paint reproductions does not show relevant differences with aging which is also indicated by a minor variation of roughness values. Images of the white paint laboratory reproduction reveal a smoother surface which reflects a decrease of the Ra for the aged sample. Images obtained for the two white paints done by Sarmento show a very similar topography although the paint sample kept in the studio has lower Ra. Also, the surfaces of both of these samples show considerable differences compared to the laboratory reproductions. The results show that AFM imaging can be useful technique to study ageing moreover results correlate well with results obtained with other analytical techniques such as FTIR-ATR and GPC-SEC. Work in progress will also include evaluation of cleaning effects on the samples described.
