More than a hundred people attend the opening of the exhibition at the Castillo de San Felipe Cultural Space that opens the program of activities for the 2022 edition of Phe Festival<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The San Felipe Castle Cultural Space in Puerto de la Cruz hosted this Saturday, July 30, the inauguration of Phe Gallery<\/strong><\/a>, an exhibition that puts the contemporary proposals of 16 local artists in dialogue with the city and its visitors. Before the eyes of several dozen attendees who attended the event, Phe Festival<\/strong><\/a> and Puerto de la Cruz thus began the programming of the seventh edition of this meeting with music and trends.<\/p>\n

The event was attended by the mayor of the city, Marco Gonz\u00e1lez, the general director of Youth of the Government of the Canary Islands, Laura Fuentes Vega, the curators of the exhibition, Miu Horemans and B\u00e1rbara Narelys Hern\u00e1ndez Calero, members of the municipal corporation and the direction of Phe Festival.<\/p>\n

"We are very committed to turning Puerto de la Cruz into a true cultural and creative ecosystem" and "we not only protect Puerto de la Cruz talent but we love to welcome talent from abroad" said Marco Gonz\u00e1lez, encouraging artists to see in the municipality a future opportunity. The mayor highlighted Phe's commitment to being a festival "that surprises more each year, that each year brings new activities to its own program and that with Phe Gallery makes clear its commitment to talent that goes beyond music".<\/p>\n

The general director of Youth of the Government of the Canary Islands, Laura Fuentes Vega, highlighted that "the world of culture has a name of Puerto de la Cruz in the north of Tenerife", and added that "it is a pleasure to continue betting on talent and youth creativity, for artistic exhibitions of all kinds of disciplines\u201d that allow new artists to be given a boost \u201cand that from then on they can have more doors open, more opportunities to continue expanding their art\u201d.<\/p>\n

Miu Horemans, as curator of the group show, stressed that Phe Gallery is "a project that advocates interdisciplinarity" in "a space that allows art to be decentralized from the metropolitan area." "The curatorial line of the exhibition is to conceive the castle as a container for dangerous bodies, understanding these bodies as all those counter-hegemonic discourses and that they will find that viral load in the language itself," added Narelys Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/p>\n
