neimënster is pleased to count Álvaro Marzán Diaz as one of its associate artists. This research project is a dialogue between painting, architecture, history, and nature. The artist is immersed in the Abbey, its graceful vaults, its deep color, and its immense spaces that can seem disproportionately large. He finds his inspiration in the rich and tumultuous past of the site, but also in its present, committed and rich in creativity. The landscape of Neimënster is also a source of inspiration, between the river, forest, and old stones, as well as its geographical situation, enclosed and protected by the imposing Bock rock. This impression of immensity inspires him to create large-format canvases and even more conceptual pictorial installations... Álvaro Marzán gradually transforms the dimension and the impression of his work. This project of fusion between Art and location, is possible thanks to the support of the Ministry of Culture with the Neistart grant.
