Description from the seller

With a self-taught artistic background, the artist held their first exhibition in 1957 in their hometown. Four years later they left Spain and lived in Cologne, Berlin, and Rome, places where they learned printmaking. Upon returning in 1967, they developed their work in painting as well as printmaking and drawing, and taught at the Royal Mint of Madrid.

Their work is part of major institutions and museums such as MoMA in New York. They have participated in biennales such as the 10th São Paulo Biennale and the 3rd Beijing International Art Biennale, among others.

They have held solo exhibitions in countries such as Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and the United States, in addition to Spain.

At the dawn of a new decade, in January 2020, they mounted a solo exhibition of recent works titled Archivos cromáticos, at Galería Freijo in Madrid.

In 2006 they were awarded the Gold Medal of the Province of Málaga.
