Posted by admin on Tuesday, 13 November 2018

The exhibition “Mystical Unveiling” by Spanish artist Ana Crespo arrived at the IUS Art Gallery on November 8, 2018. The exhibition was attended by a delegation of Embassy of the Kingdom of Spain in BiH, headed by deputy ambassador Mr. Nuño Santos. Her works are paper sculptures inspired by Sufism and work of Ibn Arabi.

The artist Ana Crespo said about the exhibition:

”I believe that imagination is one of the human being's greatest responsibilities, what we imagine opens a door; it draws a path along which future “walkers” can go. When one takes on the role of an artist, one acquires a great responsibility, which begins by “polishing” the imagination in order to access clearer forms.
