A set of paintings show the lesser known details by passersby of the modernist buildings of Cartagena in the early twentieth century, a reflection of the architecture that made the city architecture.
The cartagenero painter Juan Martinez opened on the afternoon of Tuesday, April 5 exhibition in the Centro Cultural Ramón Alonso Luzzy to bring lovers of painting, history and architecture, elements of buildings in different streets of Cartagena.
The inauguration was attended by the mayor, Jose Lopez, Councilman Area Quality of Life, Francisco Calderon, and the director of the Department of Culture, Fulgencia Plazas, besides the Minister of Development of the Region of Murcia, Francisco Barnabas.
The artist joins the celebration of the Year of Modernism in Cartagena, with a sample of works in pen and ink to which it has given color and in which the snobbery of an architecture that has marked the current urban configuration of the city is reflected.
In the words of the artist himself, since 2005, almost all my exhibitions have focused on highlighting the modernist buildings and eclecticistas my city, especially the favorite, Beltrí.
In the sample presented to assist in this modernist year, after recalling the House of Celestino Martinez and his Gran Hotel, also it refers to Antonio Gaudí and Pedro Cerdan, friends and colleagues Beltrí time.
