- According to the mayor Ana Rama, "the PSOE government and before to MC, it fills his mouth with his supposed efforts to place Cartagena as a tourist destination of the first order, but then let die the works of our artists who would promote that objective, if we do not take care of these details, no future awaits us "
Cartagena, Thursday, September 13.
Ciudadanos has denounced the little respect that PSOE and MC have shown for artistic elements of great value such as the exterior ceramic murals of the Torres Park and other locations, the work of Ramón Alonso Luzzy and Enrique Gabriel Navarro, or those located on Avenida Trovero Marín.
"The memory and traces of these artists in our city can not be marred by the municipal neglect of the rulers who have allowed, with their indifference and lack of maintenance, that many of these murals are today in terrible conditions, some of the pieces of these works of the Torres Park have disappeared, others are cracked, dirty, discolored and this requires an urgent intervention so that they do not end up disappearing, "said the mayor of Ciudadanos in Cartagena, Ana Rama yesterday visited the area to check first hand the magnitude of the abandonment.
According to Ana Rama, "to the government and before to MC, it fills its mouth with its supposed efforts to place Cartagena as a tourist destination of the first order, but then let the works of our artists that would promote that goal die; we take care of these details, we do not expect any future. "
Rama has announced that his Municipal Group is preparing an initiative that will defend in the next ordinary Plenary session so that the City Council will take action on the matter, and take care of these works through an artistic restoration plan, but remember that Ciudadanos "already presented a ambitious integral plan for the improvement of the Torres Park that was approved by the Plenary in 2016 that has only been partially executed, mainly with works in the Auditorium, but it had much more scope and without doubt included the recovery of the artistic elements that are located at".
The cloth of Trovero Marin, lost
As for the tile of Avenida Trovero Marín, the orange mayor did not know until today what had been his destiny, "it is a question that we have asked a thousand times in the Plenary, the last one in February and on that occasion the then councilor of the Area of ​​Culture and Heritage, Ricardo Segado informed that the tilework would have to be dismantled, restored, relocated to another site, and that when he had a clear opinion from the technicians, the decision would be made and the project would be made. "
"The tilework has been removed and apparently destroyed by what is reported today by the Opinion newspaper," said Rama, who recalled that this work represented the shields related to Easter in Cartagena and allegories about the city.
Citizens will ask for explanations for this matter to the Department, and if no answer, will also bring this matter to the next Plenary.
