“Portugal em Festa” (Portugal celebrates) is the title of the cultural event that can be experienced next Sunday from 1 p.m. at Franz-Mehring-Platz 1 in Berlin-Friedrichshain. The festival, organized by the Portuguese Cultural Association in Berlin 2314 and the Willi Münzenberg Forum, is also the finissage of the exhibition on the Carnation Revolution that can be seen here, which ends next week. It was opened on April 25 to mark the 50th anniversary of the MFA uprising that overthrew the fascist dictatorship in the Iberian country in 1974. In addition to establishing democracy there, April 25th also opened the door to independence for the Portuguese colonies in Africa.

The exhibition traces the development in Portugal, the revolutionary process under socialist auspices and its containment. It includes twenty panels, many original posters, leaflets and other documents from contemporary history and is based on the photos and the archive of Klaus Steiniger (1932–2016), who worked as a correspondent for “Neues Deutschland” in Lisbon from 1974 to 1979. They were created by his son Peter Steiniger, editor in the politics department of the “nd”, and the exhibition organizers Claudia Opitz and Sebastian Köpcke from the Ok Project. At the festival on June 2nd, visitors can expect a number of stands with Portuguese specialties, films about dictatorship and revolution and, at the end, a concert with political songs.
