About the author
Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro (Lisbon, Portugal, April 4, 1979) is a Portuguese photojournalist who has been living in Macau for more than seven years.
His closest family has no artistic tradition. Therefore, it is justified that at the age of 18 years he has taken real knowledge with the world of photography. He knows many Portuguese photographers from the most diverse areas and with them he learns and continues to learn.
After four years of studying Geological Engineering at the Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, he comes to the conclusion that this is not what he wants to do and he enters the course of Communication Sciences, Journalism variant, at the Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa, which ends in 2005.
He began working in the field of photography in 2000 and, two years later, began his professional internship at the extinct Intermeios news agency. He was permanent collaborator, for six years, of the newspaper A Bola. After that, he collaborated with several Portuguese and foreign publications, including I, Público, Correio da Manhã, O Comércio do Porto, Expresso, Washington Post, among many others. He also carried out photographic works for several companies.
Between 2004 and 2010, he was, in Portugal, official photographer of the Brazilian singer Daniela Mercury.
Winner of some prizes during his career, Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro has also exhibited individually and collectively. "Macau 5.0", edited in September 2015, is his first photo book.
