Exhibition: Roger de Montebello, Spain and Portugal - Recent Works. 25th-30th November 2003

"The paintings presented here, executed recently in Spain and Portugal, have all been painted on site during bullfights, including the night ones. This immediate and impulsive way of painting contrasts, in my view, with the more contemplative one of other works that I regularly go back to. I like to alternate this way, reproducing the diversity of my experiences, and keeping closer to my character than a quest of stylistic unity would allow me."
