Mr. Anton Carrera took care of the presentation -as a sort of reissue- of the book “Colors”. «I collaborated in his preparation 25 years ago. Now, we are again presenting it because Fidel has requested us so. I have reread the poems. I would sign them again, such as they are… and this is rather unusual». It is a “choral” book; that is, a book where several persons have participated. The “corpus” of the book being reproductions of Fidel’s paintings. The prologue has been written by Miquel Martí i Pol».

Josep Mª Cadena’s erudition completed the “poetic exegesis” of Bofill’s work. «I was left with the question of the last hendecasyllable that has been read: “Qui sap d’on ve la llum?” (Who knows where the light comes from?). This is a question that we all make. Poetically, Anton Carrera has asked it too». Fidel Bofill, an eminent impressionist landscaper, «has seen the light and he knows that light appears within life, in colours: these colours are, at times, like some kind of a dendriform bluish blaze, like when trees bloom; other times, they are like trees growing their own peculiar way while the colour of their wood wants to assert the amount of ideas they can suggest to all of us…».

The Rusiñol Gallery gave us a chocolate rose. Cadena took advantage of this detail: «I am glad that you are here, because today is a day when most people are in the street. Many have the rose with them; but few have the book. Here, we have succeeded to combine the idea of the book and St. George’s rose. And, when I say the “rose”, they will say: ‘where is the rose?’ Well, the Rusiñol Gallery has thought of a rose which is the best one: an edible rose! This is important! I congratulate you, Fidel and Anton, for having joined us: you have given us quite a complete vision of this day and of Catalonia!».
