Remembering Urbano Lugrís Vadillo
The exhibition “Lugrís Vadillo. Textura de mar” in de first floor Museum Eugenio Granell, 6 February – 5 March, 2008.
Textura de mar is an exhibition of recent work by the Galician artist Urbano Lugrís Vadillo. It forms part of the series of individual exhibitions devoted to international surrealist artists, which the Granell Foundation has been organising since its creation.
The exhibition, occupied the Granell Foundation building’s entire first floor, features a total of 68 works of large-, medium and small format.
Vadillo, in whom surrealism was always latent, in the boy of overwhelming imagination and the tireless reader of fantasy literature, and in the attentive spectator of his father’s stories, discovers the sea, always present in his life, in his liquid and plastic corpus, both the setting and basis of his compositions, as the texture for realizing his fantastic childhood dreams: his adult surrealist dreams.
