The Museum of the Roman Theater of Cartagena, run by the foundation that make up the Community, the City Council and the Cajamurcia Foundation, inaugurates today (20:00 hours) the exhibition 'Arquitexturas', which brings together works by the creator unionense Esteban Bernal.
This sample is based on the artist's connection with architecture and its way of approaching it, through texture and color.
Bernal projects in his work on canvas, table or paper his creative vision in existing spaces or of his invention, giving form to works loaded with atmospheres and filtered lights, of perspectives and chromatic ranges that imprint serenity.
The Director General of Cultural Heritage, Maria Comas, recalled "the great commitment that this museum makes for the talent of the artists of the Region with the organization of exhibitions such as the one that opens today and in which Esteban Bernal pays homage to Architecture and travel, inviting visitors to travel, even in time, through the spaces they recreate in their works.
The exhibition will occupy the Temporary Room of the Roman Theater Museum of Cartagena, where the presence of Roman architecture gives added value to the exhibition.
The artist actually establishes a dialogue between the ancient stones and his special look at architecture through texture and color.
Comas highlighted the work done from the Roman Theater "to ensure the preservation of the monument and its collections and to make them known to visitors, who have the opportunity to discover also the work that artists perform in the region thanks to temporary exhibitions."
This museum is the most visited in the Region with 200,000 visitors in 2016 and continues year after year growing already a benchmark of the heritage recovery, due to the cultural and tourist interest it arouses among visitors from other regions and outside of Spain "The director-general recalled.
