In Todo el tiempo, Jesús Hernández, with musical backing by Glez (alias Amaro Ferreiro), created a disturbing ‘last supper’ plagued with pictorialist references to and mentions of the tenebrist aesthetic and the still lifes of the Baroque tradition. With painstaking staging and a virtuoso use of the stop- motion technique, he presents us with a surprising gallery of characters who are disturbing one moment and hilarious the next. Black humour and audiovisual experimentation at the service of a story suspended in time, in which the tension keeps growing until we reach the unexpected end.

“A nameless Egyptian fresco, an African idol or a vase from Crete: we should behold Pirosmani’s art among them. Only this way it is possible to conceive it genuinely … …You see Pirosmani – you believe in Georgia”.

Félix Ziem (1821-1911) A nomadic, unclassifiable, and eccentric artist

French artist Félix Ziem is one of the most original landscape painters of the 19thcentury. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined. 

Memory of the Region

Memory of the Region

Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.
