ENRIC PLANASDURÁ (Barcelona, 1921 - 1984). Untitled, 1956. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated in the upper right corner. Measurements: 100 x 72 cm; 110 x 82 cm (frame). Enrique Planas Durá, known as "Planasdurá" was one of the pioneers of abstract painting in Catalonia. He was a multifaceted and versatile artist, capable of working in painting, engraving, mural, stained glass, theatrical scenography, sculpture and other techniques. He belonged to artistic groups such as Lays del Círculo de Sant Lluc, with whom he signed the "Black Manifesto" in 1949, and the Ada group. Planasdurá made his individual debut in the Alfa Galleries in Barcelona in 1943, with a work of expressionist accent. However, he would later define himself within a geometric abstraction of strong chromatic intensity. He worked with polygonal shapes of flat colors, delimited by straight black lines. Less rigid than Mondrian and softer than the kinetics, his art has a clear spatial dimension that provides a certain sense of depth to the flat forms he employs, as in the piece we present. In 1974 he was awarded the City of Barcelona Prize. Planasdurà is represented in the Paul Klee Museum in Bern, the National Museum of Fine Arts in Taipei, the MACBA in Barcelona, the Patio Herreriano in Valladolid and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid.
