Arte + Fe Caceres (Letter from our curator Ms. Maria Tarruella)

Dear Art+Faith Artists,

I´m happy to tell you that the opening this week of the Art+Faith exhibition in Caceres has been an amazing success!! we had so many people that they were crowding at the entrance! over 200 people came, and several politicians representing the City Council, governors and cultural attachés. As you can imagine the press also showed interest - I spoke in 5 radios that same day! I´m attaching beneath several links from newspapers and press agencies that covered the opening of the exhibition.



The Caceres cultural department did another catalogue of the show- which is good quality, but I must admit, I prefer the one done for the Madrid show... I will send you a catalogue as soon as I can, as I am now planning the next show in Trujillo and after that to the beautiful city of Merida! The city mayor of Merida, came to the opening as was very impressed with the works and has asked for Art+Faith to be taken there!

The show in Caceres, due to its success, is going to stay there longer, until the 17th of February and then on the 20th I will be hanging in Trujillo and the opening will be on the 22nd. I still don´t have the exact dates on how long it wil be in Trujillo before it is taken to Merida, but I´ll let you know as soon as I know.



I´m attaching a couple of pictures on how the show looks so that get an idea of the wonderful space and how the works breeth so freely! if you can´t see your work let me know and I´ll send you another image where you can appreciate it. I managed to hang ALL the works!! Also, there was a dark room where David Lopez did an incredible installation, which was like a floating basin in space filled with water and a projection of his Bath piece over it, representing baptism; smoke and light emerged from beneath, like a space-ship launched to God. It is spectacular! and we were also very lucky to have him come to Caceres, directly from Rome, and give a conference on the meaning art and Faith; on being a contemporany artist who is also a committed christian. It was breath-taking... Thank you David!



I thank the Lord for your work and how it´s acting on its own proclaiming His name, touching hearts and transforming souls as instruments of His Love. Thank you for your support and lets keep this project in prayer so that Art+Faith moves according to His will, advancing and growing for His sake, so that our art may be a bridge to Faith, to Love and to Trust in the Lord.

May God continue to bless your path!

yours in prayer

Maria
