About Jean Leon Winery

Hollywood, in the 50's decade. Jean Leon makes contact with the world of wine at his restaurant La Scala, usually frequented by the great American classic film stars.

In 1963 he decided to undertake the adventure of creating a winery and a wine that bears his name: JEAN LEON. A pioneer in Spain in the growing and cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay wines, elegant and timeless to respond to its selected and demanding clientele.

Today, JEAN LEON keeps alive the spirit of a golden age, a tribute to the work of a man who transcended his time.

The key: the meticulous work

The winery, built in 1964, preserved almost intact its appearance. Inside, however, the tradition lives with the latest technology to produce high quality wines. Since its inception, the purpose of the winery has been producing wines with unique character and limited production. The secret to get it? A meticulous control of every part of the process.

Respect for the environment

The Jean Leon winery has always applied the best vineyards and winemaking techniques to ensure the quality of its wines, but also to preserve the state of our environment. We know that protecting the environment also get wines.

It has a very Wastewater Treatment Station, with a secondary biological treatment and tertiary lagoons.

PARTY "MUSIC WITH ART" (#esteve).mp4

LIVE MUSIC by #esteve - Hotel Estela Barcelona, Sitges

Presentation in Sitges (Barcelona) by #esteve

SATURDAY JANUARY 21st - 12:00 Noon

He will offer an exclusive performance for Music and Art lovers 

Live music always transmits, makes you feel and vibrate. If it is also that kind of music that comes easily and makes us move our feet (below the table), if it catches our ears, sure that music and especially the musician has captivated us.

#esteve really needs no introduction. In fact, he only needs to be listened to realize it's going to captivate us. It's that easy when it comes to our ears to enrich our spirit. Art, in general, and music, in particular, tend to cause this feeling of fullness.

Well, #esteve deploys a repertoire that brings us closer to spiritual fulfillment.

Overall we can say that he moves in a "Chill out" mood from Ibiza, even if we wanted to be more specific we could say that he has an electronic-based soul jazz but, and there is merit, including solo arrangements and instrumentation of many carats. Guitars (electric, acoustic, Fender, Gibson,...), cello, percussion and a mix with some very slight ethnic flavor of his music make delightfull for the spirit.

His performances are vibrant, and his instrumental mastery is admirable. Especially when he lets out that Hendrix he carries inside him, but only with the right distortion so that no ear can be damaged, putting the right lo-fi to give the necessary balance. In short, it would be long to explain, it is best... to come and listen.

We leave a short biography of the artist to those who need to know.

________________________________________

Musician, singer and songwriter. From classical and jazz training, #esteve is a musician with a style "Made in the Balearic Islands". His musical genre can be classified as smooth soul - soul, funk and touches of pop - but also embraces the chill that fuses jazz with the rhythms and colors of the Mediterranean to achieve vibrant, suggestive themes such as "Hungry Heart", "Black Rainbow over and White" and "One World" (Café del Mar 30 Years of Music) or as rich and vital albums as Think, his latest work.

#esteve specializes in bringing his music to events and private parties, and has a large number of followers nationally and internationally. His audience highlights the novelty, originality, vibes transmission and spread of Mediterranean magic in his music.

The foreign public also is surprised by the exoticism in his guitar playing. The search for the Mediterranean, light, sea, islands, as a source of inspiration. Insatiable curiosity, his lyrics are the result of artistic interest and a spirit of protest.

Lyrics that talk about emotions, nature, but also of social engagement, some visionaries of today's reality. He has participated in events for major brands such as Mercedes Benz, Mapfre or DKV, as well as in events such as World Tourism Fair ITB Berlin or the King's Cup Regatta in Palma de Mallorca. Also include participation in workshops that the Government of the Balearic Islands held in different European cities (Zurich, Genoa, Florence, Rome, Edinburgh, Glasgow, San Sebastian, Barcelona, ​​Berlin, etc..) And his stay in San Francisco, where he participated in numerous private parties.

His music is a universal proposition without borders. His live performance is a life experience, smooth and vibrant joyful soul beach house.

Exhibition of Paintings by Francesc Sillue at the Art Hotel, Sitges - December 2011

The Hotel Estela Barcelona - Art Hotel provides the first solo exhibition by Francesc Sillue  at the Iris Gallery. The opening will take place on Friday, December 23rd at 7:30 

We speak of an artist with a wide geographical range. In 1959, Sillue, went to Paris where he began his most bohemian stage, entering in 1961 to join the group called "New Values" formed by the art critic Menendez Virilio, leading him to exhibit in several galleries in France. After several years, he moved to live in Norway and Sweden. Later exhibitions led him to the United States and Britain, where film artists such as Ginger Rogers and John Forsythe acquired several of his works. So Sillue is today a very popular artist in these countries, especially because of his urban creations.

After his return to Catalonia he is installed in Sitges, where is considered as a referential artist in the Mediterranean city, up to the present day.

This is a complete artist who prefers to present his paintings in a figurative background, which at times approaches a smooth hyperrealism, although his technical capacity would allow him to approach other styles. He is, therefore, an artist with great technical ability who, however, avoids the use of complex pictorial resources for considering them easy to "trick" the viewer. So we speak of an artist with enough maturity and decision to be able to define the way that he presents his works.

However, the good observer will perceive that his figuration is based on a constructivist background, checkered, which goes almost unnoticed. This "camouflage" constructivism that form the buildings with its windows and the urban furniture, is the one that lays in most of his artworks and that shows that this is an artist with more than enough arguments to catch the eye of those more demanding.

His common themes are squares and corners of typical European cities, but as anxious observer, also portrays interiors, gardens, cafes, markets and people in them.

This is certainly an honor for Hotel del Arte to present this exhibition.
