"Marc shows us the best side of Life in a bright way, strongly focused, viewed with the eyes of sensibility, where everything reflects an ironic kindness and intelligence. His paintings are just the way he is. Cheerful and full of life. And calm."

Joan Manuel Serrat —

Singer, songwriter, performer, poet and musician. One of the leading figures of modern song both in Spanish and Catalan.
