“PALMA DIGIT ART” AT RESTAURANT ROCAMAR PORTIXOL
Palma born artist José Luis Gil Miró invites to discover Palma with other eyes

Resturant Rocamar, with the collaboration of the Consortium for Economic Development of the Balearic Islands, will showcase until 26 September, an attractive and colourful exhibition of digital art, “Palma Digit Art”, which invites all the Palma citizens to see their town “with other eyes”, using new digital techniques, which are making their way into the art world. The exhibit returns to Palma after being showcased in New York.
           
The work of the versatile and creative graphic artist José Luis Gil Miró invites us, according to the Palma born artist, to “look back at the city of Palma with other eyes, to look for those hidden and surprising corners that go unnoticed on daily basis, because of our habits or the stress in which our actual world keeps us absorbed”

The exhibition highlights, with digital photographs with creative touches, those little details riddled with beauty, history and romanticism, magical places with tremendous poetry, that rock in the presence of those who slow down for a minute and stop the world around them to enjoy the simple pleasure of observing some of the marvellous and peculiar things that surround us.

“We consider it suitable to host the interesting exhibition of this young Palma artist, because with his pictures he captivates those historical and imaginative illustrations of the city that impresses us so much”, said Pep Calafell, owner and head chef of Rocamar. “Apart from being an attractive and expressive exhibition, it will motivate the imagination of many young people who are starting to learn the new artistic techniques and a fresh invitation to all Palma citizens to see all the endearing corners of Palma with other eyes”, he added.

The exhibit returns to Palma from its debut in the Big Apple, as part of the activities organised to celebrate the “Hispanic Heritage Month” at the City College of New York.
