Lecture by the artist Javier Martín. 2015-16

On December 17, the Colegio Alborán hosted a very interesting conference by the artist Javier Martín.

This contemporary artist, who has exhibited in China, South Korea, the United States, France, Germany, Panama, Peru and Spain, invited our young students to think for themselves, to always reflect, not to fall into "blindness". social. Likewise, he encouraged not to give up or surrender in the face of adversity. Especially interesting was the desire to excel that she was able to transmit.

At all times he urged the students not to forget their dreams, because "a dream that we have as a child can change your life and that of others."

His projects combine painting, architecture, sculpture and photography, expanding the idea that Art is much more than a technique to paint or sculpt: it is to Communicate. Through his original and committed works we learned to take care of the environment, to reflect on our origins, on consumption and many other current issues.

He took us by the hand on a journey in which, through the mirror, the viewer learns to think more about others and not so much about themselves, and thus "we never forget the interior", as the artist affirms.

And it is that in the words of Javier Martín “with Art we can change the world, transform ourselves and society, transmit our feelings and above all, communicate".

All the attendees really enjoyed this highly artistic meeting and asked questions related to his techniques, exhibitions and career, which was absolutely enriching.
