Cartagena brings in Enrique Grau’s bronzes

Cartagena pays homage to their homegrown artist Enrique Grau, renowned for his depictions of Afro-Colombians and Amerindians, by hosting 12 of his vivacious bronze statues at the Centro de Convenciones Cartagena de India.

The exhibition is titled “12 Bronzes for History” and includes beautiful statues “El vals,” “Niña con peineton español,” “Rita 10:30AM”, “Rita 3:30PM”, “La adivina,” “Niña bien,” “Tango azul,” “Rita 5:30PM,” and “La alacena.”

Each bronze work expresses liveliness and radiate warm light from the metal’s reflection, truly a testament to Grau’s ability to manage metalwork.

The exhibit will be held in the Centro de Convenciones Cartagena de India in the Foyer del Auditorio Getsemani, free for all viewers.
