Sa Màniga: Paintings of birds in Mallorca

The Auditorium Sa Màniga in Cala Millor (Sant Llorenç) will hold this coming autumn an exhibition "Paintings of birds in Mallorca", by Michael Warren, dedicated to the birds of Mallorca. The inauguration will take place on Saturday, September 23 at 8.30 p.m. and the exhibition can be visited until December 2, from Tuesday to Saturday between 6 and 9 p.m.

Michael Warren lives in Nottinghamshire (England) and studied at the Faculty of Art in Wolverhampton. He has dedicated full time to painting since 1972 and has developed his art in parallel with his bird watching. All his work is based on his field observations. His first paintings paid more attention to the decorative background, although this emphasis has gradually given way to greater realism. Michael Warren has studied the birds of Great Britain, U.S.A. and the whole of Europe, in the Pacific and Africa.

As a complement to the exhibition other activities will take place: a commented visit by the artist in English, with simultaneous translation in Catalan on September 27 at 8.30 p.m.; the conference "Impacte del turisme sobre el medi ambient" by Dr. Macià Blàzquez Salom, professor of the department of Earth Science of the Balearic University, that will take place on October 6, at 8.30 p.m.
