JOSEP ROCA SASTRE (Terrassa, 1928 - Barcelona, 1997). "Façade". Oil on táblex. Signed in the lower left corner. Measurements: 84 x 34 cm; 98,5 x 48 cm (frame). Formed in Barcelona, from the sixties Roca initiates a personal, independent style, and creates his own language. His proposal focused on recovering the look of the close and the everyday, the known. 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.

Measurements: 28 x 22 cm (each); 35 x 76 cm (frames). Romantic Spanish painter, Serra y Porson is currently considered as the introducer of the "tableautin" genre in Spain, which he had learned from his master Ernest Meissonier. He was a professor from 1852 at the School of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi, in Barcelona, where he had as disciples Modest Urgell, Josep and Francesc Masriera, Simón Gómez, Manuel Amell and Vicente de Genovart, among others. He began his training in Rome, and then entered the San Fernando Academy in Madrid. In 1855 he moved to Paris to further his studies, and there he was a student of Meissonier. He assiduously submitted his works to artistic competitions and exhibitions, and was awarded the third medal at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid in 1864. He cultivated the painting of history and the one of realistic subject, in addition to the painting of flowers, with an anecdotal language of great detail. José Serra y Porson is currently represented in the Prado Museum, the MACBA in Barcelona and the Royal Catalan Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi.

Montserrat Gudiol began in the art world in the family studio of medieval painting restoration, and since 1950 she has been dedicated to painting on panel and on paper.

In 1953 he took part in the collective exhibition "Current Portrait", at the Artistic Circle of Barcelona, and the following year he made his debut abroad with a solo exhibition of drawings held at the Museum of Miami (United States).

JORDI VILANOVA (Barcelona, 1925-1998). Coffee table, 1960's. Walnut veneer and plaster. Incorporates wheels, hidden. Measurements: 100 x 100 x 43 cm. In Jordi Vilanova's most notable pieces, his admiration for Nordic design is evident. In this coffee table with drawer unit and interior shelf, he achieves a paradoxical combination of robustness and lightness: the volume, chamfered at the corners and raised from the floor (it hides casters), is lightened in a natural way. It also establishes a geometric play that essentializes the forms and integrates in its design the square handles (metallic) and the circular black plaster mat that protects the top. Catalan interior designer and cabinetmaker, Jordi Vilanova entered the Escuela de Trabajo y Oficios Artísticos de 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.
