About the Item

Joan Ponç - SIN TÍTULO 1 Date of creation: 1975 Medium: Etching on paper Edition number: 70/75 Size: 56 x 76 cm Condition: In perfect conditions and never framed Observations: Etching on paper hand signed by Joan Ponç and numbered of an edition of 75 copies. This print is also dated by the artist in 1975. These etchings by Joan Ponç belong to the latest period of the artist. The figures shown remind of the South American totemic culture with references of the stars. in this bestiary that builds the universe of Joan Ponç, we can clearly feel the worldly, very animal, that perplexes and impacts for its surrealism. ABOUT THE ARTIST Joan Ponç was born in Barcelona in 1927. His training as an artist began studying painting in the workshop of master Ramon Rogent. He presented his first exhibition at the "Sala Arte" of Bilbao at the age of 20 and soon after founded the magazine Dau al Set, along with other great artists such as Joan Brossa, Modest Cuixart, Arnau Puig, Joan-Josep Antoni Tapies and Tharrats. This magazine meant the reviving of the creative impulse in post-war decayed Barcelona . A mention in the São Paulo Biennial in 1955 gave him a scholarship to study in Brazil, and moved to Sao Paulo where he founded the group L'Espai. Ponç didn't return to Catalonia until 1962. Ponç's work is characterized by having a very distant approach to the artistic discourse that dominated his era and represents a certain permanent existential crisis, surrounded by an intelligent, poetic and complex symbolism. In 1984 he died at his home in Saint Paul de Vence (France).

Fred Deux - Grey Surrealism V - Signed Original Etching
By Fred Deux
Located in Collonge Bellerive, Geneve, CH
Fred Deux - Grey V - Signed Original Etching Signed and Numbered Edition of 100 Dimensions: 24 x 14 cm Fred Deux Fred Deux, illustrator, oral poet, writer, and, under the pseudonym Jean Douassot, author of a cult book, La Gana, was a singular artist who cannot be categorised in terms of art fashions and trends. This autodidact, born in the basement of a large house in Boulogne-Billancourt to a working-class family, constantly had to overcome, as he would say. “He had to overcome”: overcome the basement walls to access the life which called him and burnt inside him. Overcome the barriers between the arts, moving from drawing to the written word, and from the page to the tape recorder, in the face of which he recounted stories to himself in a sort of endless reverie, constantly exploring the unknown in him. Overcoming and being overcome: gradually immersing himself in drawing, so that it was life itself which overcame him and surrendered to him. Timeline 1924 Born in Boulogne-Billancourt, Paris. The Deux family lived in the basement of a building close to the Seine that was often flooded. These living conditions formed the biographical core around in which the artist would develop his work as a future writer and artist. 1942 Deux worked in a factory as an electrician and night guard. 1943 Deux becomes part of the FTP group to resist against the factory. And then joined the Maquis du Doubs. 1945 At the liberation, Deux joined the Moroccan Goumier, and took part of the campaigns of Vosges, Alsace and Germany. 1947 Returned to France. Installation in Marseille. Worked in an important library that belonged to the family of his wife. 1948 Discovered Breton, Bataille, Cendrars, Peret, Sade... and founded the sub-group of Surrealists in Marseille and formed a link with the literary magazine of Marseille, Cahiers du Sud Encounters the works of Paul Klee. He begins creating his first stains with paint for bicycle and impressions (fabric and ink). At the same time, he begins to take notes for what would become "Les Rats", first version of "La Gana". 1951 Meets Cecile Reims...
