Last weekend we were able to get to Cordoba to visit the amazing mosque/cathedral, which gave us an opportunity to meet up with Jorge, a young and talented artist who will be running courses at Los Olivos. He was able to show us some of the local sites, and also his sacred art workshop. You can see the pictures here.
(On the journey to Cordoba, we stopped by San Gabriel's Church, a beautiful 16th century building, currently under restoration, where many of the roof tiles removed from the old Los Olivos building will be used).
El pasado fin de semana fuimos a la bellísima ciudad de Córdoba, no sólo a ver la mezquita, sino a encontrarnos con Jorge Dominguez, un joven artista imaginero andaluz que impartirá cursos en Hacienda Los Olivos. Con él, visitamos enclaves preciosos y su interesante taller de arte sacro. Podéis ver algunas fotos aquí.
(De camino a Córdoba paramos en la Iglesia de San Gabriel, en Loja, un bello templo renacentista a cuya restauración se han dedicado muchas de las tejas extraídas de la antigua hacienda Los Olivos).
