PRESENTATION OF BONART MAGAZINE NUMBER 198
Sculpture Park of the L'Olivar Foundation
Bonart Cultural, the sculptor Enric Pladevall and Temporada Alta presented issue 198 of the magazine at the Parc d'Escultures de la Fundació l'Olivar - Col·lecció Pladevall. The Catalan sculptor Enric Pladevall guided a visit to the Crypt, which offered attendees a unique experience. In this exhibition space, the artist presented a walkable sculpture that pays homage to the olive tree, in a great poetic gesture where word, image, earth and roots converge. The Crypt , the title of the installation, is an exological thought that, according to the artist, manifests itself in a pagan temple that seeks to be a poetic and theatrical liturgy. A poetic action was then carried out in the artist's studio, in the midst of his works. Salvador Sunyer, director of the Temporada Alta festival, and Ricard Planas, editor of Bonart, wanted to recognize the creative work of the sculptor, who this year has been selected to design the poster for the new edition of the Temporada Alta festival. Then, the poetic action that was born from the monograph 'malart_198' was given. The recital was developed by Ramon Prat, who through percussion gave rhythm to the voices of the writers Carles Camps, Narcís Comadira and Quim Espanyol. They recited the poems included in the monograph, which combine art and words in a dossier that deals with the sculptural and spatial proposal of the Foundation and the sculpture La Cripta. To culminate the action, Quim Espanyol shared his view on Pladevall's work, and together with the artist they talked about creation, expression and artistic interpretation,
At the end of the debate, bonart offered, through the restaurant l'Olivar, a gastronomic pairing between sculptures accompanied by the light of the almost full moon.
