José Manuel Broto - Untitled n. 59
Technique: Oil on canvas
Artist Biography: José Manuel Broto (Zaragoza, 1949) studied at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios in Zaragoza, later moving to Barcelona and in 1985 to Paris, where he coincided with artists such as Miquel Barceló, Miguel Ángel Campano and José María Sicilia. He holds his first exhibition in 1968, influenced by constructivism. He collaborates in the foundation of the Trama group; a group focused on the field of abstraction as opposed to conceptualism. At the beginning of the eighties, his artistic proposal is articulated around paintings of large dimensions, characterized by color and its expressive qualities, as well as the pictorial gesture. Years later, his painting was simplified in terms of materials and forms, and he introduced themes such as spatial figures or atmospheric forms. Broto received the National Prize of Plastic Arts in 1995, in 1997 the Prize ARCO of the Critics Association and in 2003 the Aragon Goya Prize of Print. His work is part of important collections, such as the Museo de Arte Abstracto Español (Cuenca), the Fundación Juan March (Madrid), the Fundación Antoni Tàpies (Barcelona), the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), the Kampo Collection (Tokyo), the Ateneum Museum (Helsinki), the Peter Stuyvesant Foundation (Amsterdam), the Preussag Collection (Hanover, Germany) and the IVAM (Valencia).
