Ramon Llovet Miserol was a painter who cultivated other disciplines such as engraving and sculpture. He was born in Barcelona in a humble working family. From an early age, Miserol began to draw and paint. Later, he attended classes in Llotja and the Athenaeum Worker. In 1938, Miserol participated as a soldier in the Civil War and returned from the front with the injury to the heart that suffered from aggravated birth. In 1939, Miserol made his first exhibition at the Costa Galleries in Barcelona, where he made two more exhibitions. He participated in the fall classrooms (October Hall) of the 40s and 50s. Miserol became a member of the FAD and participated actively in all kinds of debates and discussions on artistic subjects. In 1948, he broke with the previous period and painted a short series of expressionist-cubist works. Of restless and investigative temperament, his work evolved constantly. Thus, starting in 1950, there was a new change in the conception of his work, now social, dramatic issues predominated, within lyrical expressionism. Miserol exhibited these works in the Argos Hall, between 1951–56. From here, his work was valued and recognized by critics, collectors, etc. He received different awards and made the first exhibitions outside the country. The 1957–58 season, became part of the group of painters of the Sala Gaspar, until the 80s. From 1955, his work began a slow evolution towards greater lyricism, without forgetting irony or criticism. In 1967, Miserol began to be interested in the thought and work of the pacifist Lanza del Vasto, which influenced his way of thinking, his life and his work. He was also deeply interested in the philosophical work of the thinker Krishnamurti and theosophy. From here, the poetic and spiritual content of his work was accentuated until it ended in the mid-70s and until his last works in an almost metaphysical representation of reality.

Italian Surrealist Oil Painting Jean Calogero Big Eyed Girl Doll Mandolin Flower
By Jean Calogero
Located in Surfside, FL
Frame is 12 X 10. Canvas is 9.5 X 7.5 Calogero was born August 20, 1922 in Catania, Sicily. Self-taught Surreal Artist First exhibitions in 1945 in Sicily and Rome were very successful. He arrived in Paris in 1947 and studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. He is best known for his Surrealism and genre works. His paintings are dreamlike and visionary. They travel to an infinite space created by the artist through his memories, the sky and the sea so dear to him. In his paintings there are a few common themes: the masks with their dual dimensions that hide or shows only what you want, the profiles of the women, and the horsemen, drawn as the Sicilian tradition requires. He exhibited at the Gallery Hervé in 1951 and the following year he went to New York to present his show, then in 1953 he was invited to Los Angeles, where he returned two years later, and from where he regularly exhibited his works, and San Francisco. In 1954, Maximilien Gauthier devoted a book to him published by "The Gemini." The first exhibition in Japan was in 1965. He was awarded the Grand Silver Medal by the City of Paris in 1957. Calogero had countless exhibitions in Paris, in the fifties, plus the American exhibitions in New York (Associated American Artists, 1952), Los Angeles (James Vigevano Galleries, 1953) and then later in Japan and in major galleries in Italy. He lived and worked for many years in Paris and Italy. He died in 2001. Galerie Hervè, Parigi 1950. Associated American Artists - New York 1952. James Vigevano Galleries, Los Angeles 1953.
