FRESCO MURAL PAINTINGS IN THE CHURCH OF CELLERS

YEAR: 1995

TECHNIQUE: fresco painting on the wall.

AREA: 120 m.

BUILDING: Church of Saint John the Baptist of Cellers.

VILLAGE/REGION: Cellers (Pallars Jussà)

This group of frescos deals with religious symbols taken from elements of the popular culture of the Pyrenees. With this symbolism, Minguell shows how wall paintings become a collective allegory and they can bring cultural values to the places where it operates, without the need of too many explanatory references and it opens the door to a balanced sum of art and comprehensive symbols.

This work of art was done using the deep colours of the pigments and line graphics.
