Katalog výstavy, která hledala podobnosti a paralely převratných událostí v Portugalsku a Československu (karafiátové revoluce v roce 1974 a sametové revoluce roku 1989). Obě země mají zkušenost přechodu od totalitního režimu ke svobodě. V obou zemích se doba před a po revolučních změnách odrazila i ve výtvarném umění.
