Artist in rescue project
30 July, 2021 0
After being expropriated by the Cuban government, the chapel of the University of Villa Nueva was returned to the Catholic Church in 2009. Complicated construction and restoration works have been undertaken since then to give new life to the abused property, mercilessly destroyed by the hand of man and the inclemency of nature for more than half a century. Rael Rodríguez Capote, visual artist, appreciates the invitation to be part of this work. His task consists of restoring the Italian-style arches and making two mosaics: one of the Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre and the other of the Lebanese saint San Charbel. He also assumes the restoration of a Cross and a 1.60 meter high Christ, the high and eternal priest. The dream was to inaugurate the church in July 2020, but the ravages of the covid prevented the realization of what will undoubtedly be “a gift for all Catholics and for the necessary spirituality of the Cuban nation.” […]
A big hug of memory

This year, just before this July 2, the date on which we celebrate a new anniversary of the birth of Eliseo Diego, the extensive volume In the shelter of time that devastates me has come out on Sapienza Università Editrice. Eliseo Diego on his centenary (1920-1994), an edition by Mayerín Bello and Stefano Tedeschi. From what is inferred, it is a book that should have come out in 2020, but it is now that it becomes an editorial “event”, since it appears as an important endeavor to study the work of Eliseo Diego. It is now the occasion to appreciate nearby firms; familiar, retouched and other more recent writings that return to the poetry, narrative and essays of this great writer. Twelve texts that achieve a very appreciable harmonic sum in dispositions and judgments. […]
