Between the 20th of January and the 7th of February 2019, INSTITUTO hosts a mini-festival on architecture, urban culture and spatial practices. Quinzena celebrates the anniversary of the original project of the building by architect Júlio de Brito for the Instituto Pasteur, as it was called back then. The project was presented at Porto City Council on the 20th January 1955 and approved about two weeks later, on the 7th February. The record time approval of the project where Instituto was set up, is now celebrated annually, with a meeting of new voices in the architecture scene, as well as design and fine arts, among other disciplines.
