Before knowing the Islands, Manolo García had already looked at them many times. They were in the photographs his father kept from his military service in Ibiza, where he had done his military service in 1954, and in the landscapes of the painters that fascinated him when, as a teenager, he went to the museum. "It was a paradise," he recalls of that paper Ibiza. Later he would arrive there himself, first without the memories that he would accumulate over time through concerts, trips, and friendships. Now that he returns to Mallorca to exhibit there, his father's images reappear between the explanations of his paintings and a very present concern: he acknowledges that many people live off tourism, but warns that "everything has a price."
