In this work Disc\u00f3bolo de Mir\u00f3n is depicted.<\/strong>The artist, an expert in representing athletes, but this time with the ability to take the sun in one hand. Although it seems that in the artistic dyes sport has no place, the high temperatures registered in the social thermometer find their conception in the most banal levels of the human being, where passions overflow, languages are known and values are put into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
