"Love, Valencian style"


Artist: Ceballos and Sanabria.

Prize: 9th special section.

Cost: 23.000 Euros.

"In one of his musical compositions, maestro José Padilla asserted that Valencia is the land of flowers, light and love.A phrase that, beyond the cliché, describes an open and plural, respectful, inclusive, egalitarian and diverse society.

Valencia is a town that celebrates love on Sant Donís with the traditional mocadorá, and has produced masters of the literary art of love such as Ausias March and Vicente Andrés Estellés. This passion for history, culture, and gastronomy is represented here by the couple formed by Micalet and Santa Catalina.
With these urban totems, located right next to the Plaza de la Reina, artists Ceballos and Sanabria pay their own tribute to their mentor Pepe Puche and the falla of the 1992 Seville Expo. Once again, love will triumph."

Miguelete and Santa Catalina
Bells ring, love rings
"In the Plaza de la Reina, at dawn the bells ring, the sound of love rings...
The baroque Santa Catalina winks at the Miguelete. He rings her with beautiful touches and laughter, while he throws a kiss to the wind.
The couple begins the celebration by unleashing their passion. The ding-dongs of infinite tenderness fill the square in the ears of the world.
All of Valencia knows they love each other; their love is no secret. In Valencia, there are two lovers who only kiss when the wind blows."


Love, Valencian style
"Of all the forms of love, none compares to Love, Valencian style.
When a Valencian falls in love, their heart is set ablaze.
At the gates of spring during Fallas week, when the orange tree blossoms, Valencians cannot separate themselves from the warmth of their love. A general ringing of bells makes the Cathedral tremble. Songs of love, Hymns of peace. Fallas on their feet. All in one voice: this is true love!"

Venus goddess of love

Diverse love couples
On the rump and in the cup
"Inclusive love is diverse love, where we are all equal and yet different at the same time.
In a relationship or friendship, there are nuances, colors, a thousand laughs, compliments, and love, simply love.
Platonic love, quixotic love, fantastic love, or blind love... What a pleasure it is to know how to love!"

Love for the Fallas artist
"Tribute to the master Pepe Puche
Master craftsman, son and father of the Fallas artisan lineage, heir to the craft, the effort, and the desire to surprise people.
With the Fallas, he creates a world of satire and excitement, and with the plantá, awakens four days of emotions.
He brings the ninots to the stage and enchants with movement. He shows love for detail, for fabric, and for accessories.
How much love there is for the Fallas! What joy is experienced in the streets! Long live the love of art of our Fallas artist!"

God is love

"Ausias March: The songs of love
Love, I feel more from you than from what worse side I will remain: and from you I know what is without you. I will compare you to a game of dice."

Valencian polyamory
"Making rice, not war, is a key issue, and polyamory is a gastro-sentimental neologism.
Simultaneously, the 'traditional' can wink at the 'gentleman's'. 'A banda,' if fleeing the cold 'al horno' wants to join the feast because her chest is trembling, they can eat (happily all four) from the same pot.
Polyamory requires the consent of both parties, and to avoid indigestion: eat with knowledge.
If you don't want the rice to become soggy and make everything in a pile, it's necessary to negotiate the preparation process with each ingredient."

"Small bodies and the sanity of giants. With a shopping cart, they help the elderly. Sharing food, laughter, and kindness. Pinch of affection on muddy days."

The first love

October 9 Saint Donís
"The Mocadorá festival is the perfect recipe for Valencian love.
Shake a pinch of affection over a beautiful Mocadorá with fruit and vegetable marzipan, a piuleta, and a tronador.
It's an offering to the love that filled the belly and moved the heart, and bite after bite, a sweeter love springs forth.
This is how, through San Donís de la Mocadorá, the spell is born."
