Juan Tamariz, genius of the everyday and poet of the impossible
Luis Piedrahita recalls the humility and generosity of the master of card magic, “a huge showman”
A gathering of magicians took place at an unspecified location, with events held in various places around the world including a hotel in Las Vegas, a casino in Paris, and a restaurant in El Escorial. The scene was lively, with over 500 people packed into a venue, some even perched on chairs, lamps, or other people to get a better view.
Juan Tamariz was at the centre of the action, performing an impromptu magic show with a deck of cards. The audience, made up of both magicians and non-magicians, was captivated and reluctant to let the night end.
