About the Item
Juan Genovés Candel (Spanish, 1930-)
Painter, illustrator, and graphic printmaker engraver. He painted 'El abrazo' ('the embrace'), which became an emblematic poster during the Spanish political transition. He was born in Valencia in 1930. The son of Juan Genovés Cubells, an artisan whose family was close to the labor movement. His mother Maria Candel Muñoz came from a family of practicing Catholics. In 1946 Genovés studied at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de San Carlos in Valencia and then settled in Madrid. He set up the 'Los Siete' group together with other artists in 1949, and the following year he travelled to Madrid, where he was influenced by the works by Fra Angélico and Hieronymus Bosch in the Prado Museum. In 1957 he had his first solo exhibitions in the gallery Alfil, Madrid and in the Museo d'Arte Moderna, Havana. He is considered the most important representative of modern Spanish painting. His images, executed in a politically engaged, critical realism, were a direct response to the fascist violence of the late Franco Regime. Recognized for an aesthetic style rooted in Social Realism and Pop art, The artist's themes included arrests, manhunts, torture and murder scenes, with the victims confronted in an anonymous crowd with their equally faceless henchmen. He used stencils and spray guns for the hunted individuals that he portrayed in an "ants-like hustle and bustle."
The work of the artist is represented in numerous museum collections, his work is represented by the Marlborough galleries and regularly exhibited in London, New York, Rome, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris and Monaco, as well as at international art fairs. Genovés’ work is found in many of the most important public collections in the United States and Europe, including: The Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL; Centre National d’Art Contemporain, Paris, France; Galeria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna, Rome, Italy; The Museum of Modern Art, NY, The Guggenheim Museum, New York; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid, Spain; Israel Museum, Jerusalem; IVAM, Valencia, Spain; Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique, Brussels, Belgium.

Juan Genoves
Juan Genovés was born in 1930 in Valencia, Spain. Artist committed to the Spanish society of the time, he used art to express his concern and willingness to renew the art scene of the time. This commitment to his environment led him to meet other artists with whom he formed important groups like The Seven (1949), Parpallós (1956) and Hondo (1956). Although in his beginnings was linked to informality, after a pictorial crisis during the 60s, his art turned figurative and developed an expressionist and provocative painting. A deep relationship with movements opposite to the Franco regime, made his work a reflection of his thoughts about "the individual himself" against the "crowd". Among his main influences excels expressionism, pop art (from which took the usage of clothes and real objects glued directly on the canvas) and cinema (using narrative procedures as tracking shots or close-ups). Genovés died the 15th of May 2020, in Madrid.
