AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Original work by Catalan master Josep Guinovart, entitled “Aproximació al mar I” (Approach to the Sea I), created in 2004 in mixed media on panel and signed by the artist.
Piece belonging to his mature period, where matter, gesture and the symbolic construction of the landscape merge in a composition with a strong poetic charge. Guinovart here explores the relationship between figure, territory and memory, using material overlays, graffiti-like marks and chromatic fields that evoke the Mediterranean landscape from an abstract and deeply personal perspective.
The work presents a powerful physical presence, with visible textures and layers of pigment that reinforce its sculptural character.
Acquired in a gallery with identification on the reverse.

Brief artist biography
Josep Guinovart (Barcelona, 1927 – 2007) is one of the fundamental figures of 20th-century Spanish art. Initially linked to the group Dau al Set and subsequently to the renewal of Spanish abstraction, he developed a personal language based on matter, territory and memory.
His work has been shown in leading institutions and is part of international public and private collections. He has his own museum, the Espai Guinovart Foundation in Agramunt.
Guinovart is regarded as one of the great names of contemporary Spanish painting, with a solid presence in the national and international market.
