This exhibition will be exhibited at the Murcia Regional Craft Center from December 9, 2019 until January 6, 2020.

Exhibition Catalog The Memory of the Fire of Jesus Fabre

The General Director of Commerce, Consumption and Crafts, Carolina Espinosa Gallego presents this exhibition:

“The Craft in the Region of Murcia stands out for the quality of its products and the variety of its trades, but at the same time it is characterized by the small size of its companies and workshops, some of them in danger of disappearing.

Craft activity is part of our cultural heritage, so we have to take care of it and pamper it so that future generations can enjoy ancestral trades and come to value the authenticity and exclusivity of handmade work.

That is why from the General Management we want to collaborate with all those artisans who organize exhibitions in the Regional Craft Centers of Murcia, Cartagena and Lorca, making an exhibition catalog of the pieces presented and helping them to professionalize their work and market their product. .

On this occasion, the catalog you have in your hands reflects the work of Jesús Fabre, a self-taught painter who uses the palm stalks and coconut palm pods as a medium to express himself, using the pyrography technique and who adapts his work to the shapes of the nature.

The Memory of Fire exhibition is made up of forty-six pieces of different sizes, representing a series of animals that seem to be looking at you from the depths of their essence. It is, therefore, a different exhibition due to the support used and the strength of its pictorial expression.”
