Estepona, 9th July 2018 – The Kempinski Hotel Bahía is passionate about art, and will be holding a series of art exhibitions this year.

Tickets for this exclusive event are 85€ per person and reservation is essential by emailing info@luxstyleconsulting.com
Urbano Galindo is a painter, sculptor, poet and mystic. He was born in 1943 and his passion for art has led him to experiment with many different methods – painting, sculpture, decoration and photography.
His famous portraits unite both physical and inner beauty, revealed through smiles and looks. His work has evolved from stunning sepia portraits of the aristocracy in the 90s to the creation of striking works in purple, blue and gold depicting royalty and aristocracy from around the world. Urbano Galindo’s sculptures immerse the visitor in the infinite beauty of the Creator, wrapping them in colours and forms, to delight and fascinate. Art is a path and Galindo travels it with the passion of a poet and the vision of a mystic.
Visitors are welcome to view the exhibition between the 19th of July and the 8th of August within the 5* Kempinski Hotel Bahía in Estepona from 11am to 9pm. The exhibition is comprised of 17 pieces of art and sculpture in Urbano Galindo’s dramatic new style, with brightly coloured creations in purple, blue and gold. Works include portraits of the Sheikha of Qatar and China’s First Lady amongst others.
