Cuixart
Painter
Spain
|
Born in Barcelona, 1925
As most of the members of “Dau al Set”, his training as a painter was both spontaneous and personal. He did in fact belong to the group, which grew up around the magazine of that name launched by Joan Brossa.
He also breathed the air of that same surrealism, or Para-surrealism, which was aesthetically characteristic of the entire group. Then after a lapse of inactivity, Cuixart returned to art as a professional painter. He toyed with a certain brand of non-formalism, giving it a somewhat magical and totem like quality.
This caused him to discover again his dream world. He has several exhibitions in Europe and America. In 1959 he won the principal international painting award at V Sao Paulo Biennial.
