JORDI VILANOVA (Barcelona, 1925-1998). Suspension lamp "Anella" Series, 1967. Polished brass and parchment lampshade. Measurements: 68 x 44 x 44 cm. Suspension lamp of the Anella series designed and produced by Jordi Vilanova in 1967. A paradigmatic example of the conjunction that Vilanova carried out between traditional techniques and new materials of industrial type. Polished brass structure and parchment shade. Vilanova defended the functionality, simplicity and purity of lines. He could be described as a modern classic, as is evident in this lamp. Catalan interior designer and cabinetmaker, Jordi Vilanova entered the School of Work and Artistic Trades of La Lonja in 1939. He completed his training in the workshop of Busquets, and between 1940 and 1953 he collaborated in the studio of Lluís Gili. Jordi Vilanova was founder and promoter of the Catalan art magazine "Questions d'Art" (1967-74). In 1974 he opened premises with a permanent exhibition of furniture and upholstery of his own design, forming part of the Official College of Interior Decorators and Designers of Barcelona and the SAD. His modern furniture and his way of resolving spaces were initially aimed at a large public of limited economic resources and, consequently, homes with less living space. However, this great majority did not understand his proposal. Instead, it was the Catalan bourgeoisie, eager to break with outdated stylistic canons, who embraced his work. His specialty was furniture for children, such as the Delta stool, which won the Delta de Plata Prize awarded by the ADI/FAD in 1964. He held exhibitions of his work in Scandinavia. Among his most representative designs are the Tiracord and Billar chairs (1961), the Montseny MP bunk bed (1961), the Tartera (1966) and Petit (1978) rocking chairs and the Z magazine rack (1987) designed together with his son Pau Vilanova Vila-Abadal. It is currently represented in the Design Museum of Barcelona.

ARMANDO CARDONA TORRANDELL (Barcelona, 1928 - Sant Pere de Ribes, Barcelona, 1995). Untitled, 1957. Acrylic on board. Signed and dated on the back. Measurements: 38x 46 cm; 43 x 51 cm (frame). Cardona Torrandell began his training in the humanities, to later delve into painting. His work, plastic testimony of the current world, is characterized by variegated compositions, full of human faces, calligraphic elements and inscriptions, which define his personal iconography. He organized his work in cycles: "Retablos de la gente" (1956), "Barcas" (1956), "Máquinas" (1957), "Paisajes Concretos" (1960), "Universo concentracional" (1965), "Numancia" (1972), "Naufragios" (1979), etc. He also dedicated some tribute works to Sartre, Antonio Machado, Ungaretti and Lluís Companys. In 1965 he did the scenography for "Ronda de muerte a Sinera", by Espriu-Salvat, and the following year for "La buena persona de Sezuan", by Brecth. He also collaborated with the Sitges Theater Festival. He was associated with the Parpalló Group, and was part of Crónica de la Realidad and Intrarealismo. In 1971 he was awarded the Ynglada-Guillot drawing prize. Cardona Torrandell is currently represented in the Victor Balaguer Museum in Vilanova i la Geltrú, the Vila Casas Foundation, the Rafael Zabaleta Museum and other public and private collections.

In 1920 he moved to Paris and met Picasso, Raynal, Max Jacob, Tzara and the Dadaists. There, under the influence of surrealist poets and painters, he matures his style; he tries to transpose surrealist poetry to the visual, based on memory, fantasy and the irrational. His third exhibition in Paris, in 1928, was his first great triumph: the Museum of Modern Art in New York acquired two of his works. He returned to Spain in 1941, and that same year the museum dedicated a retrospective to him that would be his definitive international consecration. Throughout his life he received numerous awards, such as the Grand Prizes of the Venice Biennale and the Guggenheim Foundation, the Carnegie Prize for Painting, the Gold Medals of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Fine Arts, and was named Doctor Honoris Causa by the universities of Harvard and Barcelona. His work can currently be seen at the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona, as well as at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the MoMA in New York, the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, the National Gallery in Washington, the MNAM in Paris and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo.
