Albert Rafols Casamada
Albert Ràfols-Casamada was born in 1923 in Barcelona. There he began pursuing a career in architecture, which left convinced that he must devote himself exclusively to art. Thanks to a scholarship, he traveled to France in 1950, where he received a big creative boost and where he learned about post-Cubist figurative painting, creating, based on this style, his early works. Painters such as Picasso, Braque and Matisse mark their influence in the work of Ràfols-Casamada and begins to create his first abstract works. In 1955 he decided to return to Barcelona. Already immersed in pure abstraction and firmly settled in Barcelona, Ràfols-Casamada created works like "Cantera" (1958), characterized by the presence of orthogonal forms and structural composition on the canvas created from a soft color yet very bright. Around this time he makes clear the great influence of painters like Rothko and Mondrian. Later in the decade of the '60s, he reaches an oversimplification, both in form and color, coming to rely only on white to create her pieces. Being instructed in American trends, adjusts the pop art and collage to his repertoire, resulting in works such as "La Emoción y la Razón" (1965). Lover of the pedagogy of art, he created in 1964, the first Spanish school of art, Elisava, running it until 1967, year in which he left this school to create another, Eina, secular and focused on the most contemporary trends of the time. In the '70s, his works are characterized by the use of horizontal and vertical planes that maximize the chromatic contrasts, whose tones are bright and sensitive. Works such as "Invernadero" (1982) are the faithful representation of this trend. Albert Ràfols-Casamada has earned throughout his career a great appreciation of his work and his contribution to Spanish art, the proof are the awards given by the Spanish Ministry of Culture (National Plastic Arts Prize in 1980), the Legion Honor of the French Government (1991) or the Visual Arts Award of Catalonia (2003). Ràfols-Casamada died in 2009 in his native Barcelona.

Abstract Latin American Art Spanish Catalan Lithograph Josep Guinovart New York
By Josep Guinovart Bertrán
Located in Surfside, FL
Guinovart, Josep (Spanish/Catalan, 1927-2007), Untitled Abstract, 1984, lithograph on paper, hand signed, dated and marked E.A. (artist's proof) in pencil at bottom, full sheet 26.75 x 22 inches, unframed.
Josep Guinovart (1927 –2007) was a Spanish Catalan painter most famous for his informalist or abstract expressionist work.
In 1941, he began to work as a decorator. Three years later, he started his studies at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios de la Llotja (Art School of La Llotja) where he stayed until 1946.
He first exhibited his work in 1948 in Galerías Syla in Barcelona. In 1951, he produced his first engravings entitled 'Homage to Federico García Lorca'. Two years later, he was awarded a grant from the French Institute to study in Paris for nine months. Here he discovered the cubist works of Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso and travelled to Belgium, Holland and Germany.
On his return to Barcelona and after a period working as an illustrator and set designer, around 1957 he began moving towards abstract art. His work is highly unconventional and usually on a large scale, using a wide range of materials, three-dimensional objects and organic substances such as eggshell, earth and straw.
In 1962, he illustrated a book of poetry entitled Posies by Joan Salvat-Papasseit for the Ariel Editorial. He won many accolades for his work throughout the 1970s and 80s, including Spain's National Award for Plastic Arts in 1982. In 1994, a museum foundation dedicated to his art was inaugurated in Agramunt, his mother's birthplace to which he always felt a special attachment.
In 2006 he designed the winery Mas Blanch i Jové in La Pobla de Cérvoles (Lleida) and created The Artists' Vineyard, a project intended to mix sculptures and other art works from different artists in the middle of a vineyard. The Artists' Vineyard was inaugurated after his death in 2010 with the unveiling of his sculpture The Countryside Organ: a music instrument, 6 meters height, for the wind to sing the vines. This winery also displays the 10.5 meters work In Vino Veritas...
