Art particularly reflects human emotions and the fleeting. Nowhere do feelings meet with such intensity of reception as in art. The reception of living people. Color, content, message, form allow the artist to express themselves, containing a message for the viewer. On December 12, 2024 at high noon, i.e. counting three twelves 12.12.12.00, I took advantage of the invitation and participated in the opening of the exhibition by Rodolfo Navarro, an artist who works on a daily basis near Valencia in Spain. So I had a 20-minute walk from the gallery. It was a perfect day for a walk, especially since the fresh air was fantastically stimulating, during this half-run, because of course I went at the last moment. Passing another art gallery on the way, I noticed a lively, festive movement. On site, in the Palacio de Cervellon, a distinguished building right next to the Bankia foundation, right at the entrance, in the first covered courtyard, this appeared! The work consists of 200 square meters of surface painted on the base, which was used to cover the floor, touching the walls. Additionally, in the middle of the exhibition there were two sculptures integrally connected to the painting. One could put on beautiful plastic shoes and walk around the work. On closer inspection, it turns out that it consists of beautiful arrangements, very emotional, almost figurative compositions of figures, expressing strong emotions towards each other. This expressionist work, which I had the opportunity to trample, in its colors and the power of the message, exerted very strong emotions. Despite the possibility offered by walking around the installation, it was impossible to trample the message with a human foot. These presented feelings were insensitive to the power of the pedestrians' pressure. This is a very interesting composition, worth seeing. In our gallery, there is also the possibility of discussing the further fate of the work, which, leaving the public space, will be able to grace the interiors of private collections in parts. The exhibition is available until March 30, 2025. I sincerely recommend it and encourage you to have a dialogue with the creator while watching the work. Sławek Stawarczyk
