Philip West. O corpo da máquina
The English artist, born in 1949 and died in Zaragoza in 1997, thus recreates a fantastic world in which imaginary characters acquire the status of reality and everyday objects are contemplated from an innovative vision that gives them a halo of fiction. His imagination led him to capture numerous metaphorical confrontations in his paintings.

The “Xenerais da Ulla” is the most outstanding feature of the Ulla region’s traditional Carnival. It has been held in the surroundings of Santiago since the first half of the 19th century: the “Xenerais” (generals) ride on horseback, dressed in colourful military garments similar to those of that time, but they also include purely carnivalesque adornments, which the horses also wear.
