Description

I have not resisted this reinterpretation of Europe with Lola Flores on the back of a handsome bull. I don’t know if even Zeus himself would be able to kidnap her although it probably would not have been necessary for her. Lola, besides being very conscious of the value of things, knew how to put a price on them.

Those vulgar expressions that involve the female sex she made them true. Because she is like that: passionate, skin, close, truer than sun and earth, sincere. Just for this, besides her immense talent, Lola deserves all the millions of fans and followers that she has.

ROBERTO MAJÁN (Soria, España, 1967)

Roberto Maján is a self-taught artist. He moved to Madrid when he was eighteen and soon began working as an illustrator for various specialised periodicals and publishers, including Expansión, Actualidad Económica, Vogue, El Sol, El País, Health and Beauty, Anaya, Santillana and Edelvives.

In 2006 he founded Artichoque, a publishing house that released several books illustrated by his own pen, such as Kamasutra (Daniel Gil Editorial Design Award finalist in 2006) and Petronia y la reina bigotuda (shortlisted for the 2007 Visual Prize for Best Children’s Book). That year he received the Fundación Progreso y Cultura Prize for his illustrated book El Diablo y yo, which also won an honourable mention at the Lazarillo Awards.

In his personal artistic production, he parades his consummate skill with brushes and watercolours, depicting mostly human figures with a subtle and adept use of colour and creating textures and glazes to produce an oeuvre of stunning beauty and delicacy. His favourite themes expose and explore human passions, particularly love, sex and food.
