Abstract
Background: Suffering in nurses is associated with the delivery of care to patients in suffering and factors related to the working conditions. It is a multidimensional experience that occurs in situations of loss, damage, or threat to human integrity. Objective: To compare the mean scores in the dimensions of suffering (Emotional Pain, Relational Loss, and Avoidance) based on the sociodemographic and professional variables of nurses. Methodology: A descriptive and cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach was conducted with a sample of 100 nurses. A self-administered questionnaire was applied, as well as the Caregiver Grief Scale for assessing suffering. Results: Women with children, with a partner, without specialization in nursing, and with more years of service had higher mean scores of suffering. In men, the highest mean scores were found in nurses without children, without a partner, with specialization in nursing, and with more years of service. Conclusion: Nurses showed higher mean scores of suffering in the dimension of Emotional Pain, followed by Relational Loss, and Avoidance, and suffering was higher among women.

Abstract
The present study aims to adapt and validate the Caregiver Grief Scale (CGS), previously validated for the Portuguese population for formal and informal caregivers by Vasconcelos-Raposo, Ribeiro, Silva, Santos, and Teixeira (2019). The sample consisted of 100 nurses in the Primary Health Care Services (CSP). For the analysis of the psychometric properties of the instrument, Confirmatory Factor Analysis was used. The results showed a structure of three factors (Emotional Pain, Relational Loss, and Avoidance), which contradicts the original German version, as well as the earlier validation in Portuguese. The nurses' version presented the following adjustment indices: chi(2)/df=1.609; CFI=.940; GFI=.901; RMSEA=.078; AIC=115,965, showing good composite reliability (.923) and discriminant validity. In conclusion, the Caregiver Grief Scale presents robustness to be used in the study of the grief of Portuguese nurses in Primary Health Care.

Abstract
A projeção mural multimédia é hoje comumente utilizada para fins puramente publicitários ou lúdicos, de entretinimento, no âmbito de eventos que convoquem grandes aglomerados de públicos, sendo menos usual os fins culturais e educacionais. Neste artigo vamos apresentar, analisar e discutir o recurso à projeção mural multimédia em espaços públicos, com objetivos educacionais, formação cultural e de interpelação artística, tomando como tema do conteúdo projetado a própria arte contemporânea e o pensamento crítico que lhe está associado. O artigo toma como base de reflexão os cenários de arte experimental do projeto "+ PROJECTION AC - Projeção da arte contemporânea no espaço público” e suas múltiplas instanciações em diversos locais onde a projeção mural multimédia foi colocada em prática.
