Drawings and sculptures by Miquel Barceló

The Museu d'Art Contemporani d'Eivissa (MACE), situated in Dalt Vila, is housing from April 27 to August 31 an exhibition that groups some fifty drawings and a selection of bronzes and notes by the Mallorcan artist Miquel Barceló (Felanitx, 1957). Amongst the drawings worth stressing are a collection of African drawings, a selection of Chinese drawings, still life, fishes and others created in the jungle of Guatemala, where Barceló was recently to participate in a short paper in the first film by his friend Rodrigo Rey Rosa.

The show is part of the cycle "Miquel Barceló a les Illes Balears" organised by the Fundació Balears 21 and commissioned by the Mallorcan artist Enrique Juncosa (director of the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin) which will also reach the Town Hall of Sant Francesc Xavier in Formentera , the Museum of Menorca in Maó, the Roser in Ciutadella and Sa Llotja in Palma.

Miquel Barceló is now working on the ceramic cover and the decoration of the chapel of Sant Pere in the Palma Cathedral. There is more information about the artist and his work in these webs in the web of the Fons Documental Miquel Barceló de Artà.
