Exhibitions in the Casal Solleric

Exhibitions in the Casal Solleric
Coinciding with the celebration of the seventh "Nit de l'Art", last Thursday, September 18 three new exhibitions were opened in the Casal Solleric in Palma.

The main floor of the Casal Solleric is presenting until November 14 the exhibition called "Bellver. Cartography, self portraits and other lies". The exhibition, produced by the CAM with the collaboration of the Palma Town Council, is a retrospective show dedicated to Fernando Bellver (Madrid, 1954), creator trained in the Escuela de Artes y Oficios in Madrid and dedicated principally to etchings, although he also works with drawing, painting, sculpture and photography.

At the same time, the ground and mezzanine floors of the Casal Solleric will house until October 31 the exhibition "50 anys del taller de gravat Joan Barbarà". The show, commissioned by Tristan Barbarà, the artist's son, will gather together a selection of representative works by Joan Barbarà in the field of etching since 1950, when he created his first work shop in the calle Argenteria in Barcelona. Barbarà has worked with the most outstanding artists of the XX century, and in this show there are etchings by  Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, Picasso, Antoni Tàpies, Miquel Barceló, Rafa Forteza or by Joan Barbarà himself, amongst others.

The third exhibition open coinciding with the Nit de l'Art is the installation "Búnker" by the artist, Enrique Marty, that can be visited in the Espai Quatre, the hall in the basement of the Solleric, until November 30.

Finally, in the patio of the cultural centre, the works of the finalists of the Design section of the Art Jove 2003 prize, are on show from September 4 to 27.

Entrance is free and the visiting times are from Tuesday to Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 to 9 p.m. and on Sundays and holidays from 10 a.m. to 1.30 p.m., closed on Mondays.
