Random thoughts from an unconventional Spaniard in the States

.

Pour mes amis francophones…

A couple of years ago, during the time that I spent living in Paris, I wrote a collection of essays inspired by Guernica, the world renowned painting which is considered by many (including myself) to be Picasso´s greatest masterpiece.

I started working on this personal project during the days that followed the train bomb attacks of March 11th 2004 in Madrid. The anguish that many of us experienced during those days is reflected in the text, which in addition evolves around other issues that were important to me at that time. The whole work can be seen as a “coming of age” reflection on life where art, and more precisely abstract art, is used as a catalyst in my personal quest for maturity.

All of you who are capable of reading the document in French are invited to do it. Do not hesitate to share with me any thoughts and comments that it may inspire. Bonne lecture ! ;-)

    Paco: just a minor question:
    which program did you use for editing the text of the essay? not sure if it was word and then you made a pdf out of it, or maybe another program...
    Nice work, though. You shoud not keep all those things to yourself, and write some more essays.
    cheers!

    Hi Ruben,

    Yes, you are right (as usual :-). I wrote it using MS Word and then I just turned it into a pdf. Not very professional, I guess, but I’m happy the way it turned out.

    The best thing is that I really enjoyed writing the whole thing and felt that I learned and evolved a lot during the writing process.

    Un abrazo.
