Pop Galo is a monumental public art work inspired by one of the most relevant symbols of popular Portuguese culture: the Rooster of Barcelos. Aware of its aesthetic value and iconic power, the artist revisited the rooster of Barcelos with a contemporary look, allying the tradition of national handmade tile-making to the more modern LED technology.
This installation is 10 meters high and weighs 3,5 tons. It is covered by 17.000 Viúva Lamego’s tiles, 16.000 LED lights and 9 Km of electrical cables.
