An artistic conversation between generations takes shape in Sa Nostra Room with 'Encis. Painting, ceramics and poetry', a proposal that unites the artist's work Gerry Clark with the texts of his son, the poet Ben Clark, in a journey filled with sensitivity, memory and light.
The exhibition presents an unusual encounter: that of two distinct languages, the visual and the literarywho look at each other, interpret each other, and accompany each other without imposing themselves. On the one hand, the work of Gerry Clark, an artist born in Cardiff and based in Ibiza since 1980, unfolds a universe marked by the intense chromatism and a deep connection with the light and the island landscapeThe exhibition brings together oil paintings on canvas, sculptures and ceramic pieces that summarize decades of artistic trajectory and evolution.
In response, the poems by Ben Clark, one of the most renowned poets of his generation, winner of awards such as the Hyperion, Loewe or that of the ReviewThey do not explain the works, but rather engage in dialogue with them from the emotion and the fragility of wordsTen texts that accompany the exhibition and make the visit a more intimate and reflective experience.
The project, conceived as a kind of exchange between father and sonIt also takes on a special meaning as it coincides with the Gerry Clark's 80th anniversaryfunctioning as a shared celebration of creation and family bonding.
