PROVENANCE Private Spanish Collection Joaquín Peinado (Ronda, July 19, 1898 - Paris, February 13, 1975) was a Spanish painter, cultivator of the Cubist style, one of the most outstanding representatives of the Spanish School of Paris. In 1915 he entered the Higher School of Commerce in Seville where he would remain until 1918, the year in which he abandoned his commerce studies to enter the Higher School of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid, where he would be a student of Julio Romero de Torres and Cecilio Pla. In 1923 he traveled to Paris, where he met and befriended Picasso and Luis Buñuel, among other members of the Spanish colony. There he studied at the Ranson, Colarossi and La Grande Chaumière academies, introducing himself to cubist painting that would mark his work from then on. After participating in various exhibitions, he traveled to Amsterdam in 1926 where he collaborated on the sets for Manuel de Falla's work, "El retablo de maese Pedro" directed by his friend Buñuel. In 1927, after winning the prize for painting from the Diputación de Málaga, he returned to Spain where he participated as an illustrator in several magazines, including Litoral, from Málaga, and La Gaceta Literaria from Madrid; and will participate in two large collective exhibitions on avant-garde painting: the "Exhibition of Paintings and Sculptures by Spaniards Resident in Paris" in Madrid and the "Regional Exhibition of Modern Art" in Granada. His republican ideas made him participate, from Paris, in propaganda tasks with the government of the Second Spanish Republic during the years of the Civil War. He would remain in this city for most of the Second World War, at the end of which, in 1946, he would participate, as a delegate of the Section of Spanish Painters of the School of Paris, in the international exhibition organized by UNESCO and would also attend the exhibition held at the National Gallery in Prague entitled "Art of Republican Spain. Artists of the School of Paris". After traveling and exhibiting throughout America, he returned to Spain in 1969 where he was appointed a member of the Royal Academy of San Telmo in Malaga. He died on February 13, 1975 in Paris. Ronda, his hometown, is home to the Joaquín Peinado Museum.
