Far away from the unease moments that we are living, of the black horizons that the sea disputes with the earth and those who, from it, do not understand it, painting keeps being firm in its dialogue with man and society. Galicia is the origin of many painters, of brushstrokes that dive in the soul of a society dyed of illusions. On every step it becomes stronger and more powerful, through the deepening in its own culture. Painting represents the things that a land can offer and the names in this volume have a consolidated career, although they also know the international styles. They recompose their creative intimism and they give it to us so that we can participate in their joy. Abstractions, realisms, expressionisms, these are all the valid attitudes before the picture and life. The inside game, when they paint, externalizes and relates us with art making us play..
