The art around Cuenca is lovely, unique, weird, and in abundance. We did attend an opening last night. The artist is Lanner Diaz and works mainly in inks (drawings) and acrylics on canvas and board. He is married to an Ecuadorian woman and lives here, but he is Cuban. Will have a shot or two of his work later.
The first picture is a mural on the wall across from our apartment. It depicts the culture of Ecuador.
This morning we just happened in a gallery that was closed, but they were setting up outside under the bridge for a commercial shoot. We were allowed to go in (two floors). Art is all over. Just thought you guys might like to see some of it.
The first 6 are of the mural. The hummingbird at the rock wall is where it begins.
This is painted on a large gate at the entrance of a School of Religious Education.
The remaining 5 were in the gallery we visited this morning.
Well you all, that's all for now. Will post again after the weekend. Enjoy!
"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (fear), but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline (sound mind)."
2 Timothy 1:7
