Modest Cuixart
Pride and rebellion. Cuixart used to say that ‘painting should seduce rather than astound.’ His was a strange seduction expressed in this canvas in a minimalist manner, but with decisiveness and sensitivity.
Albert Ràfols-Casamada
Recognized as one of Spain’s most important painters, Ràfols Casamada gave us one of the most personal works of the colourful abstraction, clearly inspired by Matisse, Miro and Picasso, among others. Through the chromatic and compositional sensitivity of this bottle, he evokes elegance and luminosity.
Rafael Canogar
Works of art, like people, have stories to tell. That of Canogar, despite its abstraction, evokes a balance between expressiveness and order, tranquility and tension. It expresses itself in a very personal chromatic language, dominated by the severe black and grey tones and large fields of colours.
Josep Guinovart
Disturbing and revealing, his work is a transformation of symbols drawn directly from everyday reality, with bright randomly-placed colours, forming part of a subjective poem.
José Manuel Broto
Not even Cézanne, whose work inspired José Manuel Broto, could have interpreted the gestural and lyrical abstraction that this Aragonese painter captures. Freshness and dynamism. The author combs wave upon wave of different colours on one of the bottles of this unique collection.
