'Blue' is the title of the exhibition that the Department of Culture of the Caravaqueño Consistory has inaugurated in the cloister of the former convent of the Carmelite Mothers, the Cartagena artist Ascensión Pérez.
The exhibition, composed of more than forty works, remains open to the public until July 19, from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
The councilman of Culture, Juan Manuel de León, has invited the caravaqueños to visit this exhibition, which has the sea and the Murcia coast as a theme.
Ascensión Pérez portrays the delicacy of the sand, the amplitude of the sky and its clouds over a sea that is always calm, and it does so from an authentic and contemporary perspective, with a naturalism faithful to the essence of the landscape and an innovation in formats that is a constant in his pictorial work.
In homage to Caravaca de la Cruz and the exhibition space, the artist has created a work for this exhibition starring Mount Carmel and the clouds simulating the silhouette of the Virgen del Carmen.
The work is accompanied by a text by Carmen G. Grandal.
The creations of this Cartagena painter have been exhibited on the walls of the Real Cartuja de Valdemossa (Mallorca) and the Cajamurcia Foundation in Madrid, among other destinations;
and has taken the international leap in art fairs held in San Sebastian, Hamburg, Austria, Milan and the Carrousel of the Louvre in Paris.
A broad and consolidated trajectory marked by the care and balance in the composition, and by a cleanliness and luminosity that are already a hallmark of his signature.
