Doctorate in Fine Arts from the Universidad Complutense in Madrid. She has received important support throughout her career, for example the Leonardo Scholarship for Cultural Researchers and Creators from the Fundación BBVA in 2017. She has been artist-in-residence in cities such as Paris, London, Madrid and Barcelona. She conceives her photographic work as a way to represent new realities and as a tool to pose questions about the existence of human beings. Her artwork is included in important collections, nationally and internationally.
Through his plastic artwork, Martí Cormand questions the mimesis of graphic, pictorial, digital and sculptural techniques that he merges with reality. Seriation is interpreted as a way of reaching the essence of what is represented, since it converts each piece and each edition into the shadow of a unique non-existent piece. His art conveys strength and the dynamism of changes that precipitate towards the individual with a clear desire to understand the space and time where nothing remains immutable.
Quim Corominas is a painter, engraver and pedagogue. He creates large-format pieces usually made with acrylic paint. His artwork is framed within an abstract and gestural style with figurative references, in which the use of primary colours and aggressive gesture is achieved by broad rhythmic strokes of an expressive nature. As a collector he is the most important Catalan, even European, promoter of paper crafts, small wonders that recall the fantastical and illusionary world of children.
A self-taught artist who seeks new plastic approaches based on environmental awareness. Her paintings and sculptures are inspired by nature and she combines different types of soil and natural pigments to create ordered, geometric and organic compositions. Water, earth, light, reflections and shades of colour are the hallmarks of her creative work. By using the bas-relief technique and materials that she has made herself, Coromines adds, scrapes and removes different types of soil to achieve the results of texture and depth that are so characteristic of her artwork.
María José Cortés Antequera has a Fine Arts degree from the Universitat de Barcelona. She explores the details of our everyday lives through hyperrealistic painting that tries to show us the most intimate side of everything that surrounds us, while also offering an almost magical perspective through her use of chromatic tones and gentle plays on lighting that seem to transport us in a fragmented way to the silent spaces of the soul.
Roger Cortés, who uses the pseudonym RC, creates artwork that transports us to a space of unusual transcendence within contemporary artistic practice. He has a Fine Arts degree from the Universitat de Barcelona, and he tackles any artistic discipline: painting, video creation, installation, etc. in order to mix, transform, alter and question the conventionalisms adhered to in preeminent academicism. Although he is a young artist, his work has been presented in numerous solo and collective exhibitions, nationally and internationally.
Jeff Cowen studied Oriental Studies, Anatomy and Drawing and from 1988 to 1992 worked as an assistant to Larry Clark and Ralph Gibson. Through the ancient tradition of printing on silver and applying an atypical and laborious photographic process involving the use of chemical and pictorial products, engraving and causing accidents, the artist is interested in the so-called “non-moment”, that point in time just before or after an event in order to transcend the physical barriers of simple planimetry. It is in the darkroom where he searches for and gives form to his own world that is charged with dualities, poetry and sensuality, and generates a timeless corpus. Thus, beneath a simple random appearance there is a complex symbology of allusions and mysteries.
Leandre Cristòfol is an internationally-renowned artist and one of the greatest exponents of surrealist sculpture through the creation of a language that combines innovation and lyricism. Like other precursors of the avant-garde, the artist travelled to Paris and met the surrealist group in the early thirties, and became one of the great innovators in the discipline of sculpture. He combined is job as a carpenter and cabinetmaker with the study of artistic drawing, but although he adopted a figurative language, he is known for his metallic works endowed with great modernity and an aesthetic akin to Julio González’s work. He uses an infinite range of materials: copper, wood, various metals and, in particular, materials usually discarded as waste. He was awarded the Creu de Sant Jordi in 1983 and the Premi Nacional d’Arts Plàstiques in 1990, both by the Generalitat de Catalunya, and his artistic projection and recognition has had an even greater impact worldwide.
Joan Crous delicately creates his culinary art applying the most innovative techniques in the process of manufacturing and processing glass and its multiple aspects. The mixture of recycled glass with dust, water, sand and other components produces a fossilization of ingredients that are characteristic in the social and popular culture of food. His work metaphorically brings together the past, present and future times of meals, revealing the most hidden senses of memory. Great episodes in history from a gastronomic perspective, which coexist harmoniously within a meticulous and subtle artistic three-dimensionality.
