Per a Guinovart mitjançant Pessoa a Agramunt

Guinovart, Pessoa and Agramunt: three names that have inspired this exhibition.
Guinovart and Pessoa, two artists I admire and who have influenced my work, Agramunt is the place.
Guinovart, a painter who entrusts the strength of giving the work done conscientiously, with desire, with a sense of humor, work done because he likes to think and paint.

Pessoa, a poet whom I met almost at the same time as Guinovart and who has also been useful to me for my master. I am especially interested in him, doubt and the concept of intimate cosmopolitanism. This exhibition is inspired by the poem "Triumphal Ode" by his heteronym Álvaro de Campos.
Eyes, hearing, smell, touch and also, the taste, the taste of a savory drink chatting with friends. Ability to meditate, contemporaneity, modernity, intelligent contradictions and restlessness.
The two artists take me to the same point, keep doing it.

Agramunt, the strength of the land, its roots and tradition. Seas of wheat, wheat that transports ships to other places where much remains to be discovered.
