Flamenco y Mas: A Colorful Art Feast in Nerja

One of my acquaintances here in La Herradura, Dutch painter and author Renate van Nijen, has given me an experience beyond the ordinary. Yesterday, she opened a colorful art exhibition in Nerja featuring paintings and sculptures constituting a feminine entirety. Her exhibition is titled Flamenco y Más (Flamenco and More).

I had already visited her house in La Herradura and seen some of her artworks, but it was at the exhibit in Nerja that I truly understood the great breadth of her talent. Her paintings and sculptures emanate from a holistic universe, and her writing echoes her interest in human destiny.

I was taking pictures of Renate van Nijen’s artworks at Sala Municipal de Exposiciones, Nerja.

Pictures say more than words, and through her paintings and sculptures, she unfolds her talent in a fascinating way. The exhibition hall itself, with its arches and columns, framed the artworks beautifully, and I felt like I was in a temple built as a colorful tribute to matriarchy.
