Exhibition – Sensations We Are Nature by Margarita Ariza Copado
At Palacio Consistorial until March 1st.
The exhibition goes into feelings of the human being in Nature. It values the instinctive, the animality of our species, pleasure, love and the desire to return to the natural environment. It also addresses Earth’s vulnerability, as part of the principle that everything is born and dies in it. It shows Nature as the source from which all the senses drink and to which we always want to return. It also reflects the blindness of today’s man who, away from the natural environment, enters a spiral of loss and dissatisfaction. Create emotional awareness through sensations: touching the grass, tasting landscapes and listening to sounds that make us feel who we are and be part of the whole. Nature is our ally, it offers us freedom.
The exhibition consists of four installations, five sculptures and a table-cabinet with images of objects: earth, stones, wood, straw and cloth. There are also trunks and branches that come from maintaining forests.
Open: Mon (when cruise ships in)-Fri 10am-1.30pm & 5pm-7pm
Sat 10am-1.30pm & 5pm-8pm
Sun & fiestas 10am-1.30pm
Exhibition – the African Ritual Sculpture is exhibited in the Bambara Art Gallery until April 8th.
The primary function of ritual art in the African continent is to reaffirm the truth and the presence of spirituality in all facets of human life. All the force of that emotion is reflected in the cults destined to establish a constant and direct relationship between the inhabitants of the earth and the Creator. The works of African ritual art are elegant and powerful, conceptual and pure, elaborate and timeless, complex and tense. They highlight its beauty, its simplicity, its energy and its philosophical dimension.
Open: Tues-Fri 5pm-8pm

Friday 7th February – the laughs will return with Santi Rodríguez who will present ‘Infarction. Don’t go to the Light!’ a show based on the personal experience of the comedian when he suffered a heart attack to have the sense of humour that characterizes him in a hospital nightgown.
Saturday 8th February – more humour with Pantomima Full. In his head it was spectacular with this comic duo acting the stories of Roger Bodegas and Alberto Casado mocking the stereotypes of society.
Friday 27th March – Life is Rocanrol. The last monologue of Miguel Ángel Rodríguez since he decided to go on stage without his band, ‘Los Mojinos Escozíos’. He tells how at the end of a concert of his band, he enters his dressing room reeking of Rock and Roll. While he removes his leopard rags and rusty necklaces, he not only undresses on the outside, but he also undresses in body and soul and confesses how hard it is to live being a rocker. What does his mother think of his hair, his clothes and his tattoos? How does a guy who has a group educate his children? What does a Rock Star do when it’s time to be president of his neighbourhood community? These and many other questions to be resolved.
