Memory of time

Joan Casals Montes (1945-2011) He studied at the Art School of Tarragona and works in different media such as card or stone. His work blends signs and symbols with graphics, achieving suggestive pieces reminiscent of oriental cultures and the Greco-Roman world. He sometimes uses figurative elements in indefinite spaces, in which the moment of the memory and personal experience take on great significance. His works, very detailed with superimposed layers of paint, play with transparency and texture. 27th Tapiró Prize for Painting, Biennial Art Exhibition 1989
