Tardes de diumenge

The good and the best of Catalan and universal literature and art have passed through the life and workshop of Vicenç Altaió. We have ample samples of it in his own work; the author's work as a trafficker of ideas over so many years, which in a way rounds out this book, is marked by generosity towards the artists who have accompanied him. In the happy expression of Josep M. Sala-Valldaura, what Altaió has built is "a kind of collective autobiography". We are facing a journey through time and space that brings together five generations of artists and writers and connects Cadaqués with Barcelona, Paris, London and New York. Miró, Tàpies, Amat, Fontcuberta, Hugonnier, Mesquida, Malagrida, Jaar, Ventura, Tharrats... An endless banquet of which we would all have wanted to be part.
