The book is the result of the research work developed since last three years and identifies and systematizes a set of works made between 1943 and 1974 in Angola and Mozambique, as part of what became known as the Modern Movement.
In addition to the present and appropriately studied and documented works, the book presents a comparative chronology between Portugal, Angola, Mozambique and International, the location of the works and biographies of the authors who produced them.
