ALCEU RIBEIRO (Artigas, Uruguay, 1919 - Palma de Mallorca, 2013). "Figura", 1992. Assemblage in painted wood. Signed, titled and dated on the back. Measurements: 46.5 x 23.5 cm. Painter, sculptor and muralist, Alceu Ribeiro trained with Joaquín Torres-García starting in 1939, thanks to a scholarship that allowed him to settle with his brother, also an artist, in Montevideo. He studied with the master for ten years, until his death in 1949, and during his student years his work was already recognized with several prizes at the National Salon of Montevideo, in 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943 and 1945. The following year, in 1946, he became known in Paris through the Muestra de Pintura Moderna Uruguaya held there. In 1949 he founded the workshop El Molino, which he converted into the center of Montevideo's intelligentsia, and that same year he carried out his first commission for mural painting for the Palacio de la Luz in the Uruguayan capital. Shortly afterwards, in 1953, he held his first individual exhibition at the Faculty of Architecture of the same city. He also continued to participate in official exhibitions with great success, and carried out important mural projects, both pictorial and sculptural. In 1962 he becomes a professor at the Universidad del Trabajo in Montevideo, and the following year he makes a long working trip to Europe, where he leaves after holding several exhibitions on tour in South America, among other places at the Zea Museum in Medellin (Colombia). In 1964 he returns to Montevideo, and three years later he holds his first solo exhibition in the United States, at the Mayfair Gallery in Washington D.C. From then on Ribeiro exhibited his work in museums and galleries in South America, the United States and Europe, finally settling in 1979 in Palma de Mallorca. He is currently represented in the National Museum of Fine Arts and the Juan Manuel Blanes Museum in Montevideo, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid, the National Museum of São Paulo and other public and private collections in Europe and America.

CASIMIRO MARTÍNEZ TARRASSÓ (Barcelona, 1898 - 1980). "Sensitive creations", 1972. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner; titled and dated on the back. Measurements: 150 x 150 cm; 154 x 154 cm (frame). In this colorful and vibrant canvas, Tarrassó displays his usual skill to express hedonistic sensations through a unique chromatic and formal symphony. A large house and a palm tree occupy the center of a landscape that, despite being abstract, leads us to imagine a splendorous meadow bathed in bright light. With his palette dominated by glaucous and mauve tones, in contrast with warm yellow and earthy tones, he succeeds in provoking an emotional response in the viewer. Enveloping brushstrokes are entangled with each other to suggest cottony clouds, dense bushes and wooded landscapes. Using a swift and intuitive stroke, he explores the concomitances between colors of Fauve heritage, textures and emotions. Known simply as Tarrassó, he studied at the Escuela de La Lonja in Barcelona. He completed his studies in Paris, where he had first-hand knowledge of the Fauvist works that were shaking the Parisian artistic scene at the time. He was above all a brilliant landscape painter, with a style characterized by its violent and vivid colors, very luminous. He followed in the footsteps of the great Catalan landscape painters, especially Joaquín Mir, although with a clearly differentiated personality due in part to the impact that Fauvism had on his artistic thinking. He cultivated the still life and the Catalan and Majorcan landscapes. He held his first exhibition in 1928, at the Layetanas Galleries in Barcelona. Since then his exhibitions in Barcelona, Madrid, Palma de Mallorca and Bilbao followed one after the other. In 1935 he visited Mallorca for the first time, and from 1940 he had a studio there, specifically in Palma, where he lived for long periods and developed most of his artistic production. After the Civil War, during the forties, Tarrassó took part in several National Exhibitions of Fine Arts, in their editions of 1942, 1943 and 1950, and held many personal exhibitions in Barcelona, in galleries such as Augusta, Layetanas, Ars, etc., among them the one he held of Pyrenean landscapes in 1948, and the one of large canvases of Mallorcan landscapes that he presented in 1949. Although the landscape was always the center of his production, Tarrassó also made works such as the mural decoration of the church of Santa Maria de Badalona. In Mallorca he also carried out a singular undertaking, planting his easel in the Caves of Campanet to capture the stalactites and stalagmites of its stony cavities, developing a series of works that he presented at the Galerías Costa de Palma in October 1948. Throughout his career Tarrassó was awarded the Pollença Prize at the 1st International Painting Competition in 1962; the Santiago Rusiñol Prize in 1972; and the medals obtained in various editions of the Autumn Salons of Palma de Mallorca: first prize in 1967 and 1973, and honorary prize in 1970. Tarrassó's work is characterized by the great personality of his coloring. His obsession for chromatism determines a deeply sensorial, vitalist and intuitive painting. He is represented in various national and international private collections, as well as in the Museum and Artistic Fund of Porreras (Mallorca) and the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Palma.
