| - Portuguese abstract art is historically linked to the Portuguese artist group Independents' exhibitions. The exhibitions' main organizer and coordinator, painter and architect Fernando Lanhas, coincidentally is the central figure of Portuguese abstractionism. After the I Exhibition in April 1943 in the Fine Arts School of Porto, with sculptures by Altino Maia, Mário Truta, , Serafim Teixeira, Augusto Tavares and Manuel Pereira da Silva, the Independents exhibitions were started when the sculptures were placed outside the school and several times outside Oporto. A first effort towards decentralization, this did not avoid a certain marginalization of the Oporto artists in events and initiatives of greater visibility and impact in the capital. Then the II Independents Exhibition shows were held in February 1944 at the Atheneum Commercial of Oporto, with sculptures by Altino Maia, , , Joaquim Meireles, Manuel da Cunha Monteiro, Maria Graciosa de Carvalho, Mário Truta, M. Félix de Brito, Manuel Pereira da Silva and Serafim Teixeira. It would be from there that the action of Fernando Lanhas was felt in the consistent quality of the catalogue and the exhibitions, as well as in his persistence in keeping alive the initiatives. The III Independents Exhibition took place in the same year, in the hall of the Coliseum of Oporto, with sculptures by Abel Salazar, Altino Maia, António Azevedo, , , , Manuel Pereira da Silva, Mário Truta and Sousa Caldas. In the catalogue of the exhibition that toured Coimbra, Leiria and Lisboa in 1945, it was stated that the name of "Independents" is not a name at random but involves the awareness that art is a heritage of humanity and hence that "Our presence is varied, but should be understood that this enables us to build the future, as it also cannot deny us the right to remember the past."For Fernando Lanhas, the "Independents Exhibition" of Oporto was a significant historical moment in Portuguese painting and sculpture. First, because, together, painters and sculptors of different training (the reason for the word "Independents" had no affiliation with any "ism" in particular) also engaged in a collective action and immersed themselves in the same enthusiasm. Second, because there appeared, without pre-concepts or complexes, original and fruitful abstraction, and, thirdly, because the artists escaped from the centralized voracity of the capital. Between 1946 and 1950, there were four more independent exhibitions in Bookstore Gallery Portugála, in Oporto in '46, '48 and '50, and in Braga in '49. From 1943 to 1950, exhibited in almost all expositions were the Independents painters Fernando Lanhas, Júlio Resende, Júlio Pomar, Nadir Afonso, , , , , , and . (en)
- Independentes foi uma denominação utilizada em várias circunstâncias para identificar exposições e/ou grupos de artistas ao longo do Século XX em Portugal, conotados com um desejo de modernização da arte. Com exceção dos dois Salões dos Independentes (1930, 1931) e do conjunto das Exposições Independentes (c. 1943-1950), estas iniciativas não formam um conjunto coerente ou sequencial. Data de 1923 a exposição Cinco Independentes (SNBA, Lisboa); de 1930 e 1931 o 1º e 2º Salão dos Independentes (SNBA, Lisboa); de 1936 a exposição dos Artistas Modernos Independentes (Casa Quintão, Chiado, Lisboa); finalmente, em 1959 realizou-se a exposição 50 Artistas Independentes, SNBA, Lisboa. Promovidas por estudantes da Escola de Belas-Artes do Porto (onde se destaca Fernando Lanhas), entre 1943 e 1950 foram realizadas as Exposições Independentes. Segundo Fernando Guedes, "o mérito maior destes «independentes» [...] foi o de terem apresentado pela primeira vez arte abstrata realizada em Portugal e, pela insistência nessa apresentação ao longo dos anos, a terem tornado mais ou menos familiar ao público".
