Dear Readers:
As previously announced by the press, a new monumental sculpture of more than 29 meters high made of steel and copper, with a weight exceeding 36 tonnes, work of a single, omnipotent and omnipresent great artist Castellon Juan Ripoll, will be inaugurated on 28th September at the roundabout at the southern ring road with Almassora in attend a ceremony (as there can be no other way and something that we have very well used, whenever something is inaugurate this artist) the choicest and sticky political authorities of our community, and perhaps ( as has been done on other occasions) to those residents near the site, which will first be invited by mail to go to witness the act, its distinguished actors and agents, without doubt the official marketing that accompanies this unique artist, is a luxury.
This time the theme of the work responds to the noble tribute that the operator of the victims of terrorism, establishing itself as spokesperson of the feeling of an entire people, and supported by the approval of the authorities themselves "competent" to attending the event and that in his day, commissioned the project. No doubt a noble cause, I think can only be comparable to the magnitude of the project, official support and intend to address, with universal and always referring to "Guernica" by Picasso, comparisons hurt, always odious, expose between the two proposals artistic, iconographic poverty and lack of creative input of "our", that using the Manichean and smug peace symbolic resources, such as hands and doves appear reviving in my memory, the glorious pamphlets emerged from the former Soviet Soviet cultural cradle of those policies of exaltation, of incomparable socialist realism.
Whatever the noble intention of the proposal, it is, this is outdated, unsophisticated, simplistic and unoriginal, as a symbolic and iconographic resources used in the pattern. From a technical standpoint, the piece presents a significant imbalance visual makes this falls to one side, which also aggravated by the treatment of color in the material, ie the arms holding the "stylized" bird, which by tradition and cultural heritage - religious, we attribute the image of "doves", but in reality its formal description in the piece, they can be perfectly swallows, gulls, starlings and budgerigars, has the same color "rusty" the artist insists on repeating the wrong way in the same side, pointing out even more, such an imbalance. The distribution of the elements together to form an inverted Y, it also reflects a simple and basic design aspects not only anchor, but also compositional, as if to say, "I will put an arm on the other hand, for me not to drop the doll" which is unfortunate case of a monument erected on land falleros masters, who have managed to record his technical mastery and compositional daring, beautiful and impressive 
flaws in the holiday period, both in Valencia and Burriana. If this sculpture participate by their shape and size, in a contest of failure, could only do so if the jurors admitted failures of the 4th or 5th class. And speaking of size, in my time college student (from this some time ago) I had a teacher who told me that an artist should always be careful when choosing formats in projects that would work, when asked if the reason was because of the complexity to solve proportions elements in the composition, this I answered in a way eschatologically illustrative, but nonetheless very effective, I have never forgotten, my teacher told me: "a large piece that has not been well resolved both technically -formal, as in the concept of discourse, usually as a great shit, while larger, more smell "since then I try to study the many things and make many sketches before.
was hoped, after so many "donations" that say this artist has done in recent times to "decorate" our town, that a new "creation" to appear at any time. And speaking of donations, this time we do not know yet (at least I have not seen written in the publications consulted) which is the cost of the work, if a donation, or have had to pay between all my I particularly like to know, as I would like such a monumental piece, corresponded to a great height ethical altruistic action by the author and political authorities, and that is more than the others, was donated, first because a sense of solidarity as pure and sincere as referenced should not fog up with gray areas that always accompany the money, and also because, these times are not for waste, not even to finance such noble monuments of speeches. Although I feel that the high in this case, only see reflected in the more than 29 meters in the part, not the altruistic actions of those mentioned above, although I'd be wrong.
is curious and even annoying, like the story with this artist is repeated again and again, because who but the great artist would Ripollés chosen to pay this tribute?, Who if not the great teacher "cabrituno" would be who had the honor of raising the highest and most important work of the city, leaving that dwarf from Snow White, the legendary Tombatossal of another great field , as is the master Melchor Zapata?, Who if not the great blessed folksy, prince of the arts town of Castellón, the great Ripollés Stephen, you can boost the merit of being chosen? Meanwhile, the people watching and unchanging silent, another of his "Ninots" that most unfortunately, are always "indultats" because they have never been cleaner food fire, perhaps the time and history are in charge of justice that have failed to make the men of today, particularly, that the authorities who claim to be "competent" and are now with cesarean attitude, decide who is and who is not, the next " chosen "to go to the arena.
