(*) Luis Feito was born in Madrid on October 31, 1929. At 21 he entered the School of Fine Arts of San Fernando. During this period of studies, his painting rapidly evolved toward abstraction. In 1956, upon finishing his studies, he moved to Paris to live. Nevertheless, he continues to have frequent contact with the Spanish art world and participates in the founding of the group “El Paso.” Like other informalists of the group, Feito began to use matter in his works as a way to break with tradition, but unlike many of them, Feito’s matter does not build an end in itself, but is at the exclusive service of an element for him fundamental: color. At the end of the seventies the artist goes through a period of intense rethinking and radical rupture. He settles in 1981 in Montreal from where he moves to New York in 1983. He abandons oil for acrylic and progressively geometry enters his work. He receives the distinction of Officer of the Arts and Letters of France in 1985, Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters of France in 1993, the Gold Medal for Fine Arts in 1998. He is also elected a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando (Madrid). He passes away in Rascafría from the effects of Covid-19 on February 7, 2021.
