Livraria Lello X Time: What Makes a Nobel?
Event
Livraria Lello inaugurated an "unprecedented" project with Time magazine, which highlights authors awarded by the Swedish academy who were the cover of the North American magazine.
The art installation "Livraria Lello X Time: What Makes a Nobel?", by Time's creative director, D.W. Pine, highlights authors who received the Nobel, but also others who "deserved front cover honours" of Time because of "their value ‘nobelizable’ of its literature".
The installation is made up of 12 panels, which feature the covers of Time magazine, from Rudyard Kipling, one of the first Nobel laureates in Literature, to Toni Morrison, awarded by the Swedish Academy in 1993, as well as other authors who were featured on the cover, such as Virginia Woolf and William Shakespeare.
