The book of Artur Heras Ribera and I The next December 19 is presented, at 19.30 hours, at the Center d'Art l'Estació de Dénia. The presentation will be attended by Roser Cabrera, Anacleto Ferrer and the author.

Ribera and I He is a singular dietary, profusely illustrated, that combines ideas and personal memories with reflections around life and art.

A dietary "two voices" in which the painter Artur Heras brings together his own vital and intellectual experience with that of the painter Josep de Ribera (1591-1652), both born in Xativa and away from the city since young.

Heras recalls the Xativa of its origins and recreates that of Ribera, both similar despite the temporal distance that separates them.
The author imagines Ribera with all his surroundings: family, friends, exile, his relationship with power, how he grows as an artist, and how he lives and dies in Naples. The book serves to better understand and value Ribera's work, overcoming the preceding topics and collapsing the lies of which he has been subject.

After the presentation, the author will sign copies of the book Ribera and I, which the public can acquire right there. Two editions have been made: one in Valencian published by the Alfons el Magnànim Institution, the Valencian Center for Studies and Research of the Diputación de València, and one in Spanish published by the Media Vaca publishing house.
