About the Item

Josep María Riera i Aragó (1954) - Landscape - Oil on canvas Oil measurements 73x100 cm. Frame measurements 77x104 cm. Painter and sculptor, Josep Riera i Aragó trained at the Higher School of Fine Arts of Barcelona. He made his individual debut in 1981, at the Artema gallery in Barcelona. Two years later he participated in the Autumn Salon of that city, and since then he has shown his work all over the world, in prominent galleries in Spain, Mexico, Holland, Israel, Germany, Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Colombia and the United States. Joined. Particularly noteworthy are the individual exhibitions he has held at the Ceret Museum (France, 1989), the National Library of Paris (1993), the Museum of Modern Art of Oostende (Belgium, 1997), the Joan Prats gallery in New York (1998 ), the Tassende Gallery in Los Angeles (2003) and the Aalst Museum in Belgium (2006), among others. Since 1983, Riera i Aragó has developed its plastic discourse around machinery, with a symbolic language marked by interest in the means of air and maritime transport, which it sees decontextualized, separated from its original function. At the same time, his plastic language has been enriched by deepening the line/plane and empty/full dialogue. Never repetitive, each “machine” he creates evokes, without pathos or condescension, a clear and comprehensive vision of humanity. With a visual vocabulary limited to simple shapes that recall zeppelins, submarines or airplanes, Riera i Aragó develops a fertile iconography loaded with meaning that, endowed with clear irony, speaks of the absurd recklessness of man's creations and the poetic justice that results when said creations turn against him. His work must be understood as a global story, which has relationships with languages ​​as diverse as astronomy, botany, mathematics or mysticism, and which offers the viewer the possibility of entering a particular universe of great lyricism, where reality and Fiction ceases to be opposite categories. Currently Riera i Aragó is represented in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, ​​the Joan Miró, La Caixa and Vicent Van Gogh foundations, the Museum of Modern Art in Luxembourg, the Rufino Tamayo in Mexico, the Ceret and Reattu in Arles in France. , the Otani in Japan and the Heilbronn in Germany, among many others.
