New Frontiers in Art Direction: João Guerra da Mata’s Contribution to Portuguese Cinema as a Case Study
View through CrossRef
João Rui Guerra da Mata stands out as a unique case as far as Portuguese cinema is concerned. He made his debut as a costume and set designer in the mid-1990s, working closely with João Pedro Rodrigues as the latter’s film career progressed. This partnership motivated Guerra da Mata to start developing his own body of work as a screenwriter, director, and editor, and he is also responsible for introducing the term “art direction” into Portuguese cinema. Taking this into account, the purpose of this chapter is to introduce Guerra da Mata’s work by way of analysis of the shots and scenes that most clearly display his art direction in action.
