Presentation

Enrique Senís-Oliver born in 1935, now lives in Valencia, Spain. He has published his second book entitled Enrique Senís-Oliver, which contains works made between 1990 and 2014. His paintings can be found in important museums and private collections all over the world. In the year 2000 the Polytechnic University of Valencia gave Senís the commission to paint a mural for the ceiling of the new library of the Polytechnic, more than 200 square meters, and they paid him 30 million pesetas (180,000 euros). Enrique Senís-Oliver painted and delivered the mural to the Polytechnic but it is not yet installed. At the beginning of 2015, the newspaper "Las Provincias" published a series of articles calling attention to the fact that the Polytechnic kept the mural in its art funds, which it had paid for with public money, and had not even planned its assembly. Due to pressure from the press on the one hand and on the other a clause in the original contract between the artist and the Polytechnic, which stipulated that the work may not be used for another purpose (in this case not to mount it), the Polytechnic would have to indemnify to Senís an amount equal to three times its value, which would amount to more than half a million euros... After 15 years stored and rolled up in the art collections of the Polytechnic of Valencia, the mural is about to see the light; the Polytechnic is doing the paperwork to mount the mural. The General Secretary of the Polytechnic, Vicente Castellano, says that they are investigating the possibility of having the mural mounted in August 2015.
