Hemos visitado la Feria de ARTSANTANDER, y desde allí hemos recibido buenas críticas de nuestro proyecto y el apoyo de varias galerías interesadas de golpe a participar en el mismo, como igualmente hemos tenido la desdicha de que galerías and Rafael Ortiz, PazyComedia, Angeles Baths, Carvalho Carlo Maria Llanos and we have delegated the invitation for different reasons, Rafael for the 25 anniversary of his Gallery (formerly called Marble) held just ARTJAEN dates, you can not participate Stand but supports us in relation to projects of Miki Leal and Manuel Bautista, and Carlos and PazyComedia by the proximity of our dates with ArtLisboa.
A pity, galleries that really interested us enough.
But we have been pleasantly surprised to personally meet the artist José Luis Serzo, one of the last creators "total" I've had the luxury of knowing.

Next week, Las Palmas Gran Canarias.
