Art exhibitions in and around Mallorca

UNTIL October 1, the exhibition Glowing Core by German artist Rebecca Horn remains in Plaça de Sa Lontja in Palma.

Rebecca Horn, presents a site-specific work that invites us to meditate on the tranquility, inspiration and light brought by Mallorca, an island that the poet and artist visits regularly. It consists of a sculptural ensemble dedicated to Ramon Llull, the Mallorcan philosopher, composed by a central piece, an 18-metre light sculpture, surrounded by 16 other sculptures.

The materials of the installation are very diverse: electronic parts, mirrors, steel, light, prickly pears and sound. All these elements crystallize the message and embody the relationship between time and space that the artist seeks to explore.

In particular, prickly pears symbolize the Balearic island and Hayden Chisholm’s music, composed for the opening of this exhibition, reflects the movements of the sculptures.

Meanwhile, until October 2, the Hotel Bendinat and Arte Vision have an exhibition of work by the artists Daxa Parmar and Velcha Velchev.
