“GOODBY FOREVER, WINDOW” Painting

This painting represents what we saw from our living room window, in the house where we have been living Anna, Guillem and I, in the last twenty years. The house is in Cruïlles, a small village looking, at the end of the feels, to the sweet Gavarres Hills, in the Baix Empordá district. It’s a summer view, when the great fig tree, located down the house in front of our, is leafy of green leaves. In winter becomes skeletal. When we moved here from Barcelona, in 2002 summer, that house was a little bit battered. Belonged to a very old couple: they comes occasionally from the town by taxi, staying few days and coming back to their urban home. At the end they died, living in inheritance the house to their nephew: three young girls, very little interested in rural life. The house become abandoned for many hears, till a Switzerland man bought it, madding a good restauration and adding also a small swimming pool. The detail painted is the beautiful loggia of the first floor, with arches and columns with capitals, all brick, that rises to the sky behind the fig tree green leaves. It’s funny how things happen again: between 2005 and 2008 I painted a series which title was: “Birds or from my window”. Presenting that work I wrote: “I took this photo the day of our first visit, accompanied by the lady of the Real Estate agency, to the house where we now live. We could say that I bought the house just to paint the landscape that we can see from that window”. In the photo in question a battered small window is framed, by which we see the green Gavarres Hills, which in fact are the background of this series. That small window becomes the window of our bedroom bathroom, that face south. The window of this painting face opposite: face north. If the bathroom door is open, the two window look at hitch other. All things have a beginning and an end. I say: “Goodby forever, window”, because I fell the end of our home has come. I forgot: also in this painting a bird fly.
