About us Fresta kiosk
FRESTA is a place where visual culture unfolds. On our website, we feature a blog that brings you news about visual artists, illustrators, and projects. We offer a bi-weekly newsletter to keep you updated on our universe. Additionally, we create a printed zine filled with exclusive local tips for visitors to our store.
WHAT DOES “FRESTA” MEAN?
FRESTA in Portuguese is like a crack in the wall, a window that reveals the world of visual artists and illustrators. We value the importance of carefully selecting and presenting artworks and believe that print and paper are powerful tools for artistic expression.
OUR STORY
Our story started in 2021 as a catalog editorial project, where we collaborated with the JOIA Platform and launched three editions. The project was led by Julia da Costa and Vital Lordelo, who are both visual artists and founders of JOIA (2019-2023). In 2024, we transformed into a newsstand, and since then, our focus has been solely led by Vital Lordelo.
Since then, we welcome everyone to visit our stand, have a talk about art and culture an spread news, like newspapers. By reading our content, you’re supporting us and our artists and keep updated. By purchasing our artists’ work, you’re supporting us to continue creating content and talk about art and culture.
