grandparent's childhood.

Dear readers.

On March 10 the room was opened in the street piggy bank Bancaja 82 Enmedio our city an exhibition entitled "Joguets." "Memòria d'una infantesa, which shows the collection of old photographs and toys Ms. Maria Montesinos and that will be exposed to the public until April 30.

are many sensations experienced when contemplating this exhibition, the first of all perhaps, a great tenderness for those young protagonists of children at the time (today's grandparents) serious and proud that we pose for the camera with his favorite toy. F images otografías with ancient techniques such as hand-colored lighting of unreality, a sepia toning, and all yellowed over time, fused into that nostalgia but not experienced, we passed back to a healthy imagination, candid and beautiful values \u200b\u200bof participation, fellowship and generosity between friends games, on the contrary, today we are so absent and almost forgotten, replaced by electronic devices such sedentary Anglo name, made very probably in the Far East, not of the wise men, if not then where a man is willing to work for a bowl of boiled rice a day, thanking and worshiping a leader who once spoke of the meaning of being "Red", but as in the photos in this exhibition, now pales in capitalist pink all other fear and admire. Current toys that encourage a lot of loneliness, violence and selfishness that slowly becomes victimize our children and grandchildren.

Today Gone are those games where the streets and the ever-renewed nature, were the favorite scenes of the games of those children, where the sparkling imagination sought refuge in the modest and sometimes everyday material resources that formed the recreational purpose; a piece of wood, a piece of cardboard, a sheet of painted brass, and sometimes nude, daily cord of esparto or the gum elastic rubber piece together, or that resistant iron ring chirp characteristic, which served to construct that favorite toy of all, the most desirable, the most modern, one that more was shared between inseparable friends . Up and down the slopes of the street where he lived the grandfather and father in this, that and smiling quietly watched the scene fun and childish fun sitting in that sturdy cane chair, who used to lean on the wall of the facade this modest home.

This is certainly a beautiful exhibition to the memory and admiration of those children (now our grandparents) who once thought to grow and grow, becoming men and women, leaving Peter Pan and the company of these beautiful toys, their toys, but never happiness and remember that these are caused in its infancy. And now, his face cracked by the experience of the years, with eyes covered with cloud, excited smile back to playing with old toys, and also with friends of old, when they are not all they were.
