Miquel Torner de Semir was born in 1938 of the last century in the castle of Santa Pau, in La Garrotxa (Gerona), being the last person alive born in this emblematic construction surrounded by volcanoes (he currently lives in San Feliu de Guísols) . This fact marks his role as a painter. A cultured man from old Catalonia, he has always been attracted to the Middle Ages, the Romanesque of the Pyrenees and early Gothic. The trail of Italian Renaissance art, especially of painters from Quattrocento Italy – not like Fra Angelico or Raphael – can be felt in many female portraits by Torner de Semir, such as the one in question. It is precisely that mix between the old and the new where the originality of his work lies. What seems to have formed him most is his knowledge of Romanesque and Gothic. His figures, on multiple occasions, bordered by a thick dark line, evoke Gothic stained glass windows, luminous, beautiful in and of themselves. A disciple of the muralist painter and engraver Ricard Marlet, he learned what was most important to him, the discipline of drawing. With Maestro Marlet he learned about Catalan Modernism and New Centism. He studied at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts in Barcelona and at the San Fernando school in Madrid, where he will visit the Prado Museum and immerse himself in Velázquez's painting, choosing to reproduce the meninas to his liking, with his own style, with shades of bright colors such as pink and phosphorescent violet that leave no doubt about the artist's prominence, modernity and friendliness. Furthermore, if one looks closely, one can find the use by the artist of the collage technique, who decides to embed a piece of fabric, cardboard or even a musical score.

In Paris, he began his work as he calls it "between the old and the new." He began to hold individual exhibitions in Terrassa in 1968, later doing so in other Catalan cities and in Paris (Espace and Boutique galleries). His work began in a Mediterranean figurativism, later leading to abstraction, to return to a figuration with a modern concept. He is considered, in short, one of the most important exponents of Mediterranean painting.

All these trends were not unknown to him since in Barcelona he had had the opportunity to meet the group Dau al Set. At the Dau al Set school he met such renowned artists as Tharrats, Muxart and Tapies. His painting is characterized by the use of bright and rich colors. His work can be defined in a single word LIFE. Thus, the magnificent work of this Catalan painter is characterized by its rich, pasted color of great vivacity, which together with the various materials he uses as a support, gives us the result of an expressionist painting of high chromatic quality and marked personality, defining the artist as teacher.

The classic and the new merge between the brush of Miquel Torner de Semir. Time dilutes, fades away. The dividing line between past and present is erased with his paintings, with his way of drawing on the canvas. Miquel achieves what very few have achieved before: talking about the past with the voice of the present. His voice: his paintings. His method: passion. His achievement: all his work.

The painter from Girona is influenced by the ancients, Giotto, the Italian Renaissance and by the informal search of abstract painters. All this is the starting point of his painting; He is as concerned or more concerned with the craft than with the concept, he has tried to be a painter who bridges the gap between the past and the present, but also open to everything new, to the constant search. An interesting contrast in Miquel's work is the way in which he presents people, places and situations from ancient times captured with modern painting techniques. This distinguished Catalan painter has been able to break with the rules of time. Miquel Torner de Semir is so direct in defining the lines and shapes, that sometimes it is incredible that the work is a 2-dimensional canvas, appearing at first glance that the painting is rather a sum of textures from a three-dimensional world.

Some of his works have a prominent Faubist accent, with an intense and expressive color palette, in contrast to the serenity and empty gaze of the faces that invite the observer to delve into the environment of the artist's work and thought. However, Torner de Semir has his own style based on the simplicity of the realization within a very well structured composition. The female figures have the slow forms of religious art and express the calm of the spirit. The figure serves Semir to demand the order and rhythm of human actions.

According to Joan Lluís Montañé, from Barcelona, member of the International Association of Art Critics, the prestigious Catalan painter Torner de Semir, in his extensive pictorial work, "is interested in composition and color, generating especially elaborate creations , where the imprint of determination and the contrasting color palette can be seen. It exhibits figures, landscapes and compositions that represent a clear exercise of pictorial academicism in which it does not renounce a certain formal and technical innovation, all within an unmistakable seal personal plastic".

The art critic, Josep M. Cadena, says of Semir: "The painter marks the silhouettes of the main elements of each composition with strong and precise lines and uses basic and pure colors to express feelings. When possible, he makes the painting within the painting , and he even tries to put abstract interpretations and signs in his backgrounds.Thus he achieves a positive relationship between the various forms of artistic expression that motivate him and his plastic language is much richer and more attractive.He has his own style that is based on the simplicity of the realization within a very well structured composition. His female figures have slow forms of religious art and express the calm that the realizations of the spirit must obey. The figure serves to ask for order and rhythm in human actions, his painting "It is ethical. It easily communicates positive sensations in those who know its work."

For J.Llop S.: "The drawing, the fundamental, strong, precise, incisive stroke, establishes the form, delimits spaces in the thoughtful compositions that Torner de Semir presents to us. And then comes seeing differently, the imaginative, dreams arrive that connect with the reality that it describes and dresses with a chromaticism that combines basic colors, soft tones. It is a personal style that discovers the other reality of the landscape, of the figure. Interesting and attractive work, which captivates the viewer and "leads along the path of the imaginative."

Consistent with his vision of the primitives, he has not worried too much about his social projection towards his masters, they were sometimes unnamed and although his works are in many countries, he has exhibited in Europe, America and Japan, it is difficult to do an exhaustive compilation of his resume. He currently exhibits permanently at La Galería Arcadia in Madrid.

In 2003 he was chosen by the Royal Mint Museum to have one of his works published on a postage stamp and to participate in the exhibition of the 25th anniversary of the Spanish Constitution. Meanwhile, the Royal Mint Museum in Madrid has organized an exhibition of his works.

Torner's works have been exhibited in a large number of European and Spanish cities such as: Paris, Brussels, Frankfurt, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Saint Paul de Vence, Dijon, Clermont-Ferrand, Barcelona, Gerona, Valencia, Seville, Pontevedra, Oviedo, etc. Let's see below some of the Catalan artist's most important exhibitions:
