Picasso's sherry at Bodega Tio Pepe, Jerez, Spain |
Jerez (pron. hair-eth) de la Frontera is located in Andalucia in Southern Spain, a jewel of a city with an
alcazar (Moorish palace/fortress), archaeological museum, bodegas (wine cellars,
especially sherry--the word is an version of "Jerez"), equestrian farms,
clock museum, outrageous flamenco and tapas bars... I could go on and
on. But here are a few pictures to tell a story about sculpture,
painting, urban design, ceramics, topiary, food presentation,
music...all the sensual attributes of perception (texture/form/scent/line/compositions/color/taste/sound)
that make an artist swoon.
