The painter Jesús Cerro San Javier outlined in a series of works devoted to the world of railways under the title "The Train of Life", which is open until May 31 in the municipal museum.
Stations, passenger rail, and trains from different eras serve the natural painter Sabińánigo, Huesca, to recreate "the soul singular, and philosophy by train."
With different techniques among which dominates the oil, and a realistic base style, Jesus Cerro up a homogeneous sample and dynamic that recreates the grandeur of the big stations, or the simplicity of other more modest as the reproduction performed the now defunct train station in Santiago de la Ribera for which there remains no trace "and the circulations of real trains with vintage steam locomotives and coal," the artist recalls.
Cerro Jesus throws his eyes toward the past versus the current modern trains to recreate "the transport was more in keeping with its history, scenic beauty, a choice of travel more inspiring."
The mayor of San Javier, Pepa Garcia inaugurated the exhibition, said in the same line to "the magic of this mode of transport perfectly reflected by the painter."
The show receives about 40 pictures in different formats, which combines the beauty of a locomotive in a landscape that seems to merge with others in introducing the human figure, to give the whole a meaning that transcends its passion for the train, to address the individual's life journey, arriving or taking a trip on "the train of life" with which he has titled the exhibition.
Cerro Jesus, a painter specializing in portraits, in which an exhibition can be viewed by Arturo Perez Reverte, made his first exhibition in 1973 in Murcia.
Since then he has exhibited in various parts of Spain, and also in Peru, Argentina and Chile.
The "Train of Life" presented in San Javier was preceded their involvement in Block "Water of Life", the Expo Zaragoza in 2008.
The exhibition can be visited from Tuesday to Saturday from 09:30 to 14:00, and 16:00 to 19:00, and Sunday 10, 30h to 14, 00h.
