DO YOU KNOW WHY WORLD ART DAY IS CELEBRATED?
Surely more than once you have had the feeling that a song “has saved you”. Or you may have read a book that has changed your life. Or you have spend hours and hours walking through the corridors of a museum or an art gallery, surprised by what you had in front of you. How many of you have not burst out laughing watching a play or have cried at the movies?
Â
Art helps us channel emotions. It is a tool of expression, self-knowledge, development, creation ..., both for artists and for the public.
It takes us through infinite worlds and is synonymous with freedom. Art makes us human.
World Art Day serves to vindicate and make all this visible.
Why April 15?
You have probably heard of Leonardo Da Vinci. He is considered one of the best artists in history and also one of the most important. He was born on April 15, so it was decided that this was a beautiful way to pay tribute to him.
The day was proposed by the International Art Association and later made official by UNESCO.
From the Anquins Gallery we invite you to consume and promote art.
During this month you can visit Didier Lourenço's "Primera persona" exhibition, or sign up for the newsletter so you don't miss any details of the upcoming news.
