SWV is a system for cataloguing Siza’s works. Created in the same way as Bach’s BWV, it associates an identifying acronym (the SWV) with a chronologically based alphanumeric system (as in opus cataloguing) that chronologically identifies each of Siza’s works.

The following triptychs offer us the context of possible Geographies of Siza Baroque.

“Siza, Baroque Chamber” opened at the Soares dos Reis National Museum with a special visit from Álvaro Siza

It was a golden afternoon entire of pearls.

Gathered among the Museum’s sculptures, we listened to speeches by António Ponte, Álvaro Sequeira Pinto, Teresa Cálix and José Miguel Rodrigues.

Álvaro Siza, the special guest, would join the group shortly afterward to visit his Baroque Chamber with curiosity and some emotion. He paused with longtime friends on the patio under the sky, among fragments of granite. The inscription “Genio” on one of these fragments, dating from the 2nd century, bridged the time for that meeting.

They stayed there while the audience occupied the stage, circulating between scores and paintings and peering behind the scenes (the books, the student drawings, the travel records).

In the exhibition, there is also a film, Office Baroque, by Matta Clark, and, on the opposite side, Siza’s Voice: two pieces that establish an elliptical dialog that attracted the most resistance.

In the other courtyard, the guests were celebrating, and Siza’s work (present there) was toasted by all with a ‘Port of Honor’ and the smell of camellias.
