This Tuesday, January 28, the minister of popular power for culture, Ernesto Villegas, arrived in the city of Havana, where he will participate in the VI Conference for World Balance, organized by Cuba with support from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), for dialogue between civilizations and the culture of peace.

“After fulfilling my schedule in Egypt, where I attended the Cairo International Book Fair, and was received by the ministers of Culture and Tourism and Antiquities, I am in Havana to attend the VI Conference for World Balance, organized by Cuba with the support of UNESCO,” Villegas wrote on the social network Instagram, according to the Ministry for Culture.

In addition, Villegas took the opportunity to pay homage to the artist Edgar Álvarez Estrada, who insisted on portraying the forerunner of Latin American independence Francisco de Miranda standing and victorious.

“From here I pay homage to the master painter Edgar Álvarez Estrada, whose remains are being veiled at the National Art Gallery in Caracas. Here, in the residence of the Venezuelan ambassador in Havana —Orlando Maneiro—, this painting of Francisco de Miranda by Edgar stands out, as a sign of his commitment to painting the Precursor standing and victorious,” he said.
