Water-colours against the Prestige oil slick

The Sala de Paper of the Sa Nostra cultural centre in Palma is holding from January 28 to February 8 the exhibition "Terres de Baliar" with drawings and water-colours by the biologist and artist Juan Varela. The works are the originals that were used to illustrate the book "Les Terres de Baliar. Apunts de natura i de paisatge", by Juan Varela and the biologist Joan Mayol, published by Sa Nostra in 1999.

The Sa Nostra Foundation has decided to sell these original drawings and water-colours to benefit the programme for the recovery of marine birds affected by the Prestige oil slick, coordinated by SEO/BirdLife with collaboration from the GOB.

More over, the biggest hall of the Sa Nostra Cultural Centre in Palma is holding until February 8, an anthological exhibition dedicated to Antoni Gelabert (Palma, 1877 - Deià, 1932), considered to be the principal referent of the artistic renovation led by the modernism and the most outstanding Mallorcan artist of the first half of the XX century.
