Josep Maria Cabané has taken part in exhibitions since 1986 and has taught the genre of portrait in various courses and seminars. The artist depicts a representation of the human figure, applying the aesthetics of portrait whilst avoiding a photographic preciseness. His characters are the result of a reformulation of human features, imagination and his own personal universe. He reprises and distorts everything we see in an evident transformative purpose that aligns him to Magritte’s surrealism, but it is wrapped in melancholy and the spatial void endows relief and prominence to the individual. His recent works are focused on addressing the most historical aspects of cyclical memory.
