Although Francesc Anglès graduated in Medicine and Surgery in 1963, within a few years he had also embarked on artistic activity as a sculptor, mainly working with stone, bronze, wood and clay. In the early seventies, he incorporated a new material directly associated with his profession: plaster casts, which endow his works with a presence of partiality and imperfection. The colour white and the human figure predominate in his work, as well as the idea of the group in open-air sculpture, as in the Monument als castellers (Tarragona, 1999), which features 222 human figures. His work is highly realistic and has been associated with the artwork by the North-American sculptor George Segal.
