JAUME PITARCH (Barcelona, 1963). From the series "Matches", n.11. 1999-2000. Photography on baryta paper. Provenance: Gallery dels Àngels of Barcelona. Measurements: 80 x 80 cm; 81 x 81 cm (frame). Artist currently based in Barcelona, Jaume Pitarch studied Fine Arts at the Chelsea College of Art and the Royal College of Art in London. His language is based on the decontextualization of man-made elements, which he dismantles and reconstructs in a completely different way, stripping them of their original meaning and value. Throughout his career as an artist, Jaume Pitarch has held numerous exhibitions nationally and internationally, highlighting: Àngels Barcelona (2013, 2009, 2004,1997); Galería Fúcares, Madrid (2013, 2008); Spencer Brownstone Gallery, New York (2013, 2009, 2006) or in Galerija Vartai, Lithuania, 2011. Likewise, his work has been selected for group exhibitions in international galleries and institutions. His work is part of public and private collections such as the MACBA collection, the Vila Casas Foundation, the La Caixa collection, Artium, the Bergé collection, the Patio Herreriano Museum or the collection of the Royal College of Art in London, among others. Pitarch states that his work "focuses on how productivity has affected our notion of time. Market, work, value or leisure are only complementary expressions of it. It seems that contemporary art practice, participation and consumption are time-based activities and therefore subject to a system of production." He continues "Part of my practice consists of rescuing and reorganizing objects, actions or simple episodes that belong to these contexts in order to provide them with a new reading outside the limits that scheduled or productive time determines. These objects, the reproduction of these actions and episodes should be read as critical and poetic devices that make possible a decelerated revision of reality".

JAUME PITARCH (Barcelona, 1963). "Entropía de Jackson".2009. Mixed media (collage on cardboard". Provenance: Gallery dels Àngels of Barcelona. Measurements: 77 x 107 cm. This piece was part of an exhibition of the same name by Jaume Pitarch at the Àngels Barcelona gallery, in which the theme of time was treated from a new perspective both as a concept and as a plastic development. As the press release read: "Pitarch transforms mundane objects and work rituals into instruments for critical reflection. Frequently, his work consists of obstinate actions that lead to apparently absurd, unproductive, invisible or unimaginable results. This absurdity is not, however, self-indulgent: it questions the identity, socializing, and behavioral relations between man and his material production. For Pitarch, this is simply the consequence of the angst of a man lost in a web of constantly mutating social structures to which he derives all his energy in a failed attempt to belong, "to insert himself into them". The theme of time (time as that which constantly leaves us out of the game) is therefore a constant in his work. A Virilian time that is sometimes alluded to, stopped or converted into an invisible ally called process". Currently based in Barcelona, Jaume Pitarch studied Fine Arts at the Chelsea College of Art and the Royal College of Art in London. His language is based on the decontextualization of man-made elements, which he dismantles and reconstructs in a completely different way, stripping them of their original meaning and value.

Caixa de Catalunya Foundation, 1989. Reproduced on page 75. Measurements: 125 x 182 cm; 130 x 187 cm (frame).

Bonnat, and Rome. He collaborated as a cartoonist, art critic and poet with the magazine "L'Avenç", one of the most outstanding artistic publications of Catalonia at the turn of the century. He also wrote for "La Vanguardia". As a painter, he began his career in history painting and anecdotal realism, to later evolve along the lines of symbolism, strongly influenced by English pre-Raphaelism. Recognition came in 1888, when he won a silver medal at the Universal Exposition in Barcelona. He continued to participate in official exhibitions in Barcelona and Madrid, and was again awarded at the Barcelona Exhibition in 1898, where he received the Queen Regent's Extraordinary Prize. In 1911 he received the Prize of the King and Queen of Spain. Already as a mature painter, he worked on placidly fantastic, detailed and precious themes, as well as religious themes and some portraits. He was also a member of the Board of Museums of Barcelona, advisor to the Academy of Fine Arts, professor at the School of La Lonja and co-founder of the Artistic and Literary Society of Catalonia (1911).
