The Light of Images of Segorbe is visited by La Rioja Culture Minister




The minister for Culture, Education, Youth and Sports of La Rioja, Luis Alegre, and the General Culture Director of this Autonomous Community, Domingo Ribera, visited The Light of Images of Segorbe exhibition last Saturday.

Alegre and Ribera, who came from Logroño to Segorbe specially to visit The Light of Images, signed the book of honour of the exhibition. "This is a marvellous, surprising and splendid exhibition. A cultural and traditional phenomenon. The title is very appropriate because these images have a light of their own. These images, these expressions of art, are there for the people to be aware of our nation's rich heritage. Both autonomous authorities and the central government are increasingly aware of the importance of recovering and preserving our artistic heritage. The existence of these exhibitions becomes a vehicle to convey the artistic legacy created by our ancestors to future generations. These exhibitions discover the legacy that we are leaving for future generations to safeguard these treasures which talk of the history of our nation, a common patrimony which displays the greatness of our origins", said Luis Alegre.
