The Museo Tiflológico presents ‘Alfa y Omega. Pecados y Virtudes’, an exhibition by the multidisciplinary artist Pedro José Pradillo. This exhibition features 14 unique interpretations that explore the duality of the seven deadly sins and their opposing virtues: Pride/Humility, Greed/Generosity, Lust/Chastity, Wrath/Patience, Gluttony/Temperance, Envy/Charity, and Sloth/Diligence. Pradillo, a Doctor of History, is known for his commitment to object-based and conceptual art, focusing on the role of visual products in contemporary society. His work aims to create fascinating images and objects by combining found elements, provoking thought and reflection in the viewer. In this exhibition, the pieces go beyond purely visual composition to experiment with elements that stimulate tactile perception. Visitors are invited to engage with simple assemblies of figures, reliefs, and objects on various boards and structures, covered with different textures and treated with disparate processes. This approach encourages a multisensory experience, allowing the artwork to be recognized and appreciated through touch as well as sight, thereby broadening the scope of artistic engagement.
The exhibition can be visited until March 19th. Specific ticketing information is not detailed on this page; visitors are directed to the museum's general admission policies or website for details.
