To mark World Art Day<\/strong>, celebrated every April 15<\/strong>, Sant Cugat organized an extensive program of activities on Saturday, April 18, 2026<\/strong>, coordinated jointly by the Visual and Plastic Arts Sector Committee of the Cultural Council<\/strong> and the Sant Cugat City Council<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sala Rusi\u00f1ol joined this celebration of art by opening its doors to the public with two free activities featuring artist Carles Azc\u00f3n<\/strong>, who is currently exhibiting his collection “Collserola, Our Green Lung”<\/strong> at the gallery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day began with a guided tour of the exhibition<\/strong>, led by the director of Sala Rusi\u00f1ol, giving visitors the opportunity to discover the key themes of the exhibition and gain a deeper understanding of Carles Azc\u00f3n’s artistic vision of one of Sant Cugat’s most emblematic natural spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the tour, the artist himself gave a live painting demonstration<\/strong>, sharing his creative process with the audience. Visitors were able to watch, step by step, as a new work came to life, discovering his working method, his expressive brushwork, and the sensitivity with which he interprets the landscapes of Collserola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both activities were free of charge and received an excellent response. The gallery welcomed a large number of visitors, who actively participated throughout the day and greatly appreciated the opportunity to meet the artist in person and witness the creation of a painting live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through initiatives like this, Sala Rusi\u00f1ol reaffirms its commitment to promoting the arts and bringing art closer to the public, transforming the gallery into a vibrant space for meeting, learning, and shared artistic experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, we are pleased to share a selection of photographs from the event, highlighting some of the most memorable moments from the guided tour and Carles Azc\u00f3n’s live painting demonstration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
