José Parlá ADAPTATION TRANSLATION . 2008 . Elms Lesters Painting Rooms

This film, by Kam Bhogal, records the first UK solo show of paintings by José Parlá opened to the public on Friday 10th October 2008.
It marked an important and transitional point in his development as a painter.
It included large site specific paintings, which were painted during an extended residency at the Elms Lesters Painting Rooms, and was THE exhibition in London that Autumn.
"As our society moves forward through time, ever faster and in ever more complex patterns of living, we forget our spirit - our inner growth. We believe ourselves to be on the cusp of evolution but perhaps we are only experiencing an involution. The marks on the walls of our cities are perhaps a testimonial, like scars of a wounded civilization" José Parlá: Taganga, Colombia. July 10th, 2008

Human activity in & around cities!? Given that mortals are SUB-human, it's a category error of the first stripe to begin with. I won't quibble: it's scribble in the dribble, right!?
