Espais Volart, Barcelona
The presentation of the book Per_Cromwell will take place in the auditorium of the Espais Volart on Thursday 28 June at 7 pm. The event will be attended by its two authors Vicenç Altaió and Per Cromwell, Chantal Grande, the photographer Josep Rigol, and the publisher Roser Faura.
Per Cromwell, a Swedish communicator and photographer uses his special, almost unique, photographic vision and sensibility to capture in each picture something vague and undefined which takes you to the future, a new dimension.
In another creative field – that of writing – this communicative ability is also shared by the poet and essayist Vicenç Altaió who, with his literary touch and highly-tuned capacity for evocation, is possessed of the gift of transporting us to another sphere while revealing an alternative and distinctive reading of thought.
The joint creative energy of Cromwell and Altaió combines surprisingly in this book in a perfect tandem.
PLACES LIMITED. Reservations must be made in advance. Call 93 481 79 80 or email volart@fundaciovilacasas.com.
