JOAN PERE VILADECANS (Barcelona, 1948). Untitled, 1970. Collage on panel. Signed and dated. Dimensions: 58 x 52 cm (irregular); 75 x 69 cm (frame). Self-taught, Viladecans first gained recognition in 1967 through an exhibition at the Cercle de Sant Lluc in Barcelona. The success of that exhibition led to his early recognition, and since then he has held exhibitions in Spain, Canada, Germany, Mexico, the United States, Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg. Among his solo exhibitions, the following are particularly noteworthy: the one at the Seville Expo (1992), the UNTER DM in Cologne (2001), the Berlin exhibition of his works on paper (2003), and two in Barcelona, “Symptoms and Diseases” and “Heritage and Memory,” in 2006 and 2007, respectively. Viladecans began his career deeply influenced by two of the most renowned Catalan artists of the 20th century: Antoni Tàpies and Joan Brossa. His early work stems from a formal Baroque style rich in poetic resonances, blending techniques with a dense brushstroke that brings him close to material painting. Subsequently, his work has evolved and been refined through a complex process of synthesis that culminates in the development of a strictly personal aesthetic language, based on reflection and a constant dialogue between instinct and reason, figuration and abstraction.
