In the eighties, Pep Agut set up an alternative space for contemporary art, called Grup Tal Taca (1980–1983). Five years later he moved to live in Cologne (Germany) and, in 1991, he was invited to be an artist-in-residence at the Fondation Cartier in Paris. Based on his pictorial-photographic training, he focuses his interest on the limits of representation, the role of the artist and the place of art. Starting from a conception of a complex and personal working process, through the use of techniques, media and concepts, he studies ideas and theories related to representation, language and architecture.
