Santo Domingo, September 4, 2019 \u2013 The Ministry of Culture and the General Directorate of Fine Arts announced the opening this Thursday, September 5, of the exhibit \u201cMonte adentro con Luc\u00eda,\u201d where plastic artist Luc\u00eda Marte presented her latest artistic creations. The exhibit formally opened at the \u201cLa Rotonda\u201d Hall at the National Gallery of Fine Arts in Santo Domingo.<\/p>\n
Artist Luc\u00eda Marte\u00b4s latest exhibit consists of 496 sketches and 40 color drawings. The artist\u00b4s main theme is based on life in the countryside and nature scenes from some of the country\u00b4s most beautiful rural areas. Many of the drawings depict farmers, women from the countryside, animals and fruit, to mention just of the few characteristics of the Dominican countryside. <\/p>\n
Artist Luc\u00eda Marte, who is also a cultural manager, is a graduate of the National Fine Arts School where she took specialized courses and won various awards for her works. She has carried out local workshops and researched recycling techniques and the use of paper to produce some of her sculptures. <\/p>\n
For the artist, this new exhibit is about \u201c\u2026reliving some of the happiest moments of my infancy\u2026and a way of once again finding the various colors, flavors, aromas and a host of feelings that can only be felt in the heart of a forest\u2026\u201d <\/p>\n
Art critic and director of the National Fine Arts Gallery, Marianne de Tolentino, also stated that Luc\u00eda Marte is an intuitive and passionate artist, who \u201c\u2026aside from her creative talent has a profound connection to environmental issues and listens to their interior voices. She respects with reverence everything related to nature, without exception.\u201d<\/p>\n
Director Tolentino also highlighted the work carried out by Salvador Berg\u00e9s, who turned the Gallery of Fine Arts into a magical piece of the \u201cdeep forest,\u201d where Luc\u00eda Marte\u00b4s people, fauna and fruit live. <\/p>\n
