EDUARDO ARRANZ BRAVO (Barcelona, 1941-2023). "Texas home", 1973. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner. Signed, dated and titled on the back. Measurements: 200 x 260 cm; 202 x 262 cm (frame). Work published in "Arranz Bravo-Bartolozzi", J. Corredor Matheos. Page 68. Arranz Bravo was a total artist, theoretician and executor, key in the development of the Catalan and Spanish avant-garde of the second half of the 20th century. His work and his personality are part of the history of struggle and rupture of the Spanish artists during the last decades of Franco's regime. Arranz Bravo was a spearhead in this opening, in this rejection of traditionalist Manichaeism that led to the complete renovation of Spanish art and placed it once again in the European avant-garde. Eduardo Arranz Bravo trained at the School of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi, in Barcelona, between 1959 and 1962. He made his individual debut in 1961, at the University Club of Barcelona, but the exhibition that made him known to the Barcelona critics was the one organized by the Ateneo of Barcelona in 1961. Between 1968 and 1970 he was part of the group formed by Gerard Sala, Robert Llimós and Rafael Lozano Bartolozzi. He continued to collaborate with the latter until 1982, alternating joint exhibitions with individual ones. The contact with these artists influenced his initially abstract style, which approached the new figuration and pop art. He has had exhibitions all over Spain, as well as in Paris, Amsterdam, Venice, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In 1983 he held an anthological exhibition of his work at the Sala Gaspar in Barcelona, and between 1986 and 1988 he was in charge of the artistic direction of Jaime Camino's films "El balcón abierto" and "Luces y sombras". He took part in the VIII Salón de Mayo in Barcelona and in the exhibitions "Muestra de Arte Nuevo" (Barcelona, 1971), "Picasso 90" (Louvre Museum, 1971), "Experiencias conceptuales" (Barcelona, 1971-72), among others. In 1989 he presented an exhibition of the work of his last three years at the Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo, and an anthological exhibition at the Palau Robert in Barcelona. His awards include the II International Biennial of Sport, the figure award of the Biennial Estrada Saladich, and the Ynglada-Guillot drawing award. His work can be found in the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, the Fine Arts Museums of Vitoria and Seville, the Museum of São Paulo and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

JOSEP ROCA SASTRE (Terrassa, 1928 - Barcelona, 1997). "From Lucas Cranach, 1953. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner. Signed, titled and dated on the back. With Oriol Galeria d'Art label on the back. Measurements: 100 x 80 cm; 105 x 86 cm (frame). The one now being auctioned is an early work of the painter Josep Roca Sastre, corresponding to a stage prior to the realization of his intimate interior scenes. The canvas is a metaphysical version of the work "The Three Graces" by Lucas Cranach the Elder, a panel painted by the master in 1531 and now kept in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Trained in Barcelona, in the sixties Roca began to develop a personal, independent style and created his own language. His proposal focused on recovering the look of the close and the everyday, the familiar. He exhibited for forty years in the Sala Parés in Barcelona, and also showed his work in other Spanish cities, as well as in the United States. In 1966 he was awarded the Sant Jordi prize by the Diputació de Barcelona, and two years later the medal of honor at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris. In 1980 he became a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi, and in 1993 he was awarded the Quadern Prize of the Fundació Amics de les Arts i de les Lletres de Sabadell. Roca Sastre developed a figurative style of intimate themes, applying a personal and subjective look to his interior scenes as well as to his urban and natural landscapes. Since his death, retrospectives of Josep Roca's work have been held at La Pedrera and the Muncunill (Terrassa), Oriol (Barcelona) and Juan Oliver Maneu (Palma de Mallorca) galleries. His work is preserved in the National Museum of Art of Catalonia.
