Jordi Curós Ventura (Olot, Girona, 1930 - Barcelona, 2017) painter and printmaker.
Born in Olot in 1930, after an initial artistic training at the School of Arts in his hometown, he worked in the religious imagery workshops of Olot, El Arte Cristiano. In the early 1950s, a restless group of artists from Girona formed the Indika collective, one of the country’s early avant-garde groups. In 1954 he obtained a scholarship from the Institut Français in Barcelona to study in Paris. Upon his return he settled permanently in Barcelona. In 1958, the Barcelona City Council granted him another scholarship to broaden his studies in Paris. This was the period of informalism, which he abandoned in the mid-1960s, coinciding with his entry into the Parés Gallery in Barcelona, making way for a more figurative painting, a direction in which he remained subsequently.
