I remember day of Carnival of Venice, the city has retained some of my ghosts, wandering forever for vicolo and streets. With all these lights so strange, warm, nuanced, dense color, new to the eye a and again, and the shadows that make and break the story of the days and the history of the centuries. With that let lose oneself. With that old thing, irresistible elegance and superb gesture, so close, just fold two corners in succession, and yet so far from any tourist. With that night, that walk at night and look what nobody has seen. Take our word even though they have spent so many in the same place.

The formidable writer and painter Ramon Gaya wrote wonderful pages on Venice in a daily painter who anyone with minimal interest in the city, art and good literature should know. The Pre-text editorial published literature Ramon Gaya carefully in separate volumes and a year ago met a beautiful edition full Complete Works, the newspaper including, of course. A good opportunity to look with eyes serene city of Gaya.
The images belong to the documentary Gonzalo Ballester, La Serenissima , nominated in 2007 for the Goya Awards in the category of best short documentary. The voice is the painter.
