Montana Gallery Seville. C/Pérez Galdós 1 acc.
Five top-notch artists including Miguel Brieva (Seville, 1974), Manuel Ocampo (Filipines, 1965), Curro González (Seville, 1960), Manuel Calvarro (Madrid, 1955) and Hervé di Rosa (France, 1959) will be responsible for showing their work at the next exposition at the Montana Shop and Gallery in Seville. After its five years of history, the gallery has brought in a lot of new talent and has positioned itself as one of the fundamental reference points for modern art in Andalusia.
Curro González
From illustrations to comics, toying with sculpture, visual collages or superimposing images, these artists are on their own lively personal journey and know just how to show it through their creations. Everyone has responded really well to the Montana event and graffiti lovers got to get a closer look at some fundamental icons of the current artistic movement.
Hervé di Rosa
As written in the press notice, “this is not a typical exposition”…
About to reach our fifth birthday as a gallery, we’d like to do something different and unexpected. Many artists have put their mark on our walls, along with lots of hope, effort, and reflections, all of which brought us to the point of wanting to put a different kind of exposition on our walls.
Manuel Calvarro
Our expositional line has always been focused on urban art, but putting on this kind of exposition means much more than breaking taboos; it means bringing our public closer to forms of expression which go passed labels and the art market; they travel directly from the retina to the heart of someone who impatiently strives for knowledge.
Miguel Brieva
The five artists who make up the group of people who are ‘Too old for graffiti, too young to die’; Miguel Brieva ( Seville), Manuel Ocampo (Philipines), Curro González (Seville), Manuel Calvarro (Huelva), Hervé Di Rosa (France); are, for us, cult artists, as well as our top artists; not just because of the influence they have or will have on future generations, but also because, aside from being great artists, they’re also great people who are committed not just to the social aspect, but also the spirit of the art, and all that goes along with it. The work of these artists, is not just the present, but also the future, of what some call art, and what we call passion for life and our ‘work’. Seleka Muñoz, 2010.
