"Newgüegüense" exposition by Spaniard Valverde
ViaNica.com | Jun 5, 2008

The exposition holds a total of 34 pieces and a video installation, most of which produced in 2008. "When I saw the play (El Güegüense) for the first time, I noticed that some characters, such as the women, don't say anything, and I said to myself: 'there's something here' ", said the artist. Valverde also explained that after studying the work and its context, he decided to give his interpretation of specific elements of the play, by linking it to modern scenes from everyday life.
The exposition will remain in the Galería Códice until Friday, June 13. The pieces can be purchased by visitors. To find out more about the national play, referred to before, please read the El Güegüense Special.
