The Dutch artist Jan Hendrix will exhibit his work at the César Manrique Foundation. The exhibition, included within the thematic line "Art and Nature", will remain open at the headquarters of this entity, located in Taro de Tahiche, and in the José Saramago Room, both in Lanzarote, from June 5 to September 14 of this year.
The Government of the Canary Islands has supported this initiative due to its cultural interest and, above all, due to the prestige and international projection of the exhibition, in which the artist Jan Hendrix will create several specific pieces commissioned by the Foundation. The agreement has been signed by the Minister of Education, Universities, Culture and Sports, Milagros Brito, and by the president of the Foundation, José Juan Ramírez.
