'City dawns', by Sr García on freedom and domestic refuge

This is the first virtual exhibition in Spain curated by Gunter Gallery. Sr. García is the artist invited to reflect on confinement and freedom, the need for communication and the domestic refuge. "I have counted each day, crossing the calendar with a red pencil one after another. I have seen how birds fly, sound, sing, breeze, sound, trees… since dawn with that same red color. No matter the hours, they marked the rhythm, with the numbers crossed out. One rhythm, and the luck of listening to them", explains the man who is the best contemporary collagist in Spain. These pieces, where the creator mixes different techniques, talks about brotherhood, open fields, humanity. An artwork that opens up a new creative path in Sr. García's career, closer to the contemporary and the pictorial.

What was going on while everyone was locket up?

He has counted each day, crossing it on the calendar with the red pencil. He has seen how birds fly, sound, sing, breeze, sound, trees… since dawn and with that same red color. No matter the hours, they set the pace, with the numbers crossed out. A beat and the luck of listening to them.

Is it just a memory?

That moment, all these moments, so many moments. So many minutes, hours, long days, giants. Life has not stopped and haunted him, every moment. He has lived, he has dreamed, birds have accompanied him.

Paviment, traffic and noise have disappeared

Another day that ends, but tomorrow, as always walking on the sidewalk, looking east, birds will return. The brick wall in front has changed its color every morning, every afternoon. And they have been flying above it, with the clouds.

Nature was our refuge, our great hope

Any morning, looking at the park opposite. Any afternoon, with cold or with the return of heat. He hasn't stopped looking for birds. They helped and brought encouragement when he need them. Thanks for the nights, the sun and those voices among branches!
