The Muram will frame this afternoon to present the book Modernism in Alcoy: its historical context and the crafts, whose author is Jorge Domenech, architect and professor at the University of Alicante, and the conference Modernism and crafts .
In presenting the book will be Francisco Gabriel Muñoz, architect and professor at the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena.
It's about modernism as a movement of renewal and artistic rebellion, which was no stranger Alcoy, as can be seen in its buildings and architects Timoteo Briet Montaud and Vicente Pascual Pastor (especially 1904-1914).
In addition, highlights and rescues from oblivion the important role that made many artists and artisans and reflect on important sociological and historical issues.
The author combines the teaching perspective and the walk to work.
As for the conference, will try to explain the historical origins of Modernism: Pre-Raphaelite movement, the Arts and Crafts group and the thought of John Ruskin and William Morris.
Commented on a visual tour of various modernist architectural details, grouped according to the crafts, you can see continuing exemplary contribution in spite of an unjust policy.
Both events will be held this afternoon, starting at 18.00 pm in the auditorium of Muram, Palacio de Aguirre (Market Square, 16).
