The inauguration was at- tended by the Mayor of Torremoli- nos, José Ortiz, and the granddaugh- ter and great-granddaughter of María Barrabino, the owners of the prop- erty prior to the council acquiring it for 1.1 million euros last month. Built in 1862, and uninhabited since 1996, the house will be a key feature in the renovation of the Plaza Costa del Sol. The overhaul, which is expected to take four months, will respect the exterior and inte- rior structure, returning the house to its former glory and regaining its role as the architectural backbone of the town. The grounds of the house are to be opened to allow di- rect access to the Plaza Picasso and the Iglesia de Buen Consejo. The renovation of the house and the Plaza Costa del Sol, an invest- ment which will cost the town hall approximately 3.8 million euros, will be overseen by architect, Sal- vador Moreno Peralta. The Plaza Costa del Sol will be re- designed to include an emblematic pergola, shaded green areas, ponds, fountains and water features. The introduction of the water features, along with reinstalling to its origi- nal location of the old fountain in the square, will enforce the strong connection Torremolinos has with water. José Ortiz stressed that the pro- ject is like a window that will con- nect the present and the past, say- ing: “We are doing what other towns have done; retrieve our geographi- cal centre, our heritage and our his- tory. We are going to add a unique space of cultural, architectural, and artistic importance that will have an incalculable value for the future.” The renovation of the streets and squares that surround the Plaza Costa del Sol should be complete by the summer season of 2018.

Second phase cubist artist María Blanchard gets the recognition she deserves alongside Juan Gris

María Blanchard wa s vilified by a powerful French art dealer who preferred the style of other Cubist artists

:: ANTONIO JAVIER LÓPEZ MALAGA. Henry Kahnweiler was a German-born art historian, col- lector and one of the most nota- ble French art dealers of the 20th century. He had the money and the power to make the difference between who was a successful art- ist and who wasn’t. He was fasci- nated by the work of Juan Gris and with that infatuation, he vilified the work of Spanish cubist painter Maria Blanchard, until he had erased her from the map. The Carmen Thyssen Museum, Malaga, is now ‘setting the record straight’ by presenting a new ex- hibition entitled ‘Juan Gris, María Blanchard and the Cubisms (1916- 1927)’ which includes work by both artists.
