Press Release

The exhibition covers more than 30 years of the Catalan artist’s career, from the early 1990s to the present day, and explores from different perspectives the profound reflection on the human condition that runs through his entire body of work. By means of abstract and conceptual expressions in his early works, to more figurative and sensual representations in his most recent proposals, the selection of fifteen pieces delves into recurring themes of his artistic universe such as identity, the fragility of the human condition, the ephemeral, spirituality, silence, communication and language.

About the Artist

Jaume Plensa creates sculptures and installations that unify individuals through connections of spirituality, the body, and collective memory. Literature, psychology, biology, language, and history have been key guiding elements throughout his career. Using a wide range of materials including steel, cast iron, resin, paraffin wax, glass, light, water, and sound, Plensa lends physical weight and volume to components of the human condition and the ephemeral.
