The city of Girona is honoring artist Vicenç Huedo with eight simultaneous exhibitions, making it the most extensive exhibition proposal ever held in the municipality.

The painter and drawing professor Vicenç Huedo Díaz-Carrasco (born in Socuéllamos in 1955) is the focus of the most ambitious exhibition project undertaken in Girona. After more than fifty years living and working in the city, where he set a trend with his famous river houses, the artist sees his artistic, social, and human legacy recognized.

"I didn't finish fine arts: ignorance is very daring."

The exhibition is distributed across eight cultural venues in the city, a fact that highlights the cultural, institutional, and civic coordination involved. The exhibition project is titled Res és veritat (Nothing is true), a phrase that, according to the curators, defines his style of painting, based on invention filtered through a critical and social lens.
Despite being self-taught, Huedo taught classical drawing for decades at the Escola Municipal d'Art in Girona. Among the eight exhibitions, the artist particularly highlights the one at the Casa de Cultura, which covers twenty years of his career, and the one at La Fita, which focuses on works of magic realism from the eighties, rarely seen until now.
