PABLO GARGALLO CATALÁN (Maella, Zaragoza, 1881 - Reus, Tarragona, 1934). "Harlequin's Head", 1928. Drypoint on laid paper, copy 9/12. Signed in plate: PG 28. With hand-painted period frame. Presents some lack of polychrome. Some stains on the paper. Measurements: 18 x 13 cm (plate); 22 x 17 cm (paper); 43 x 37 cm (frame). Rare print by the artist. Only one edition of 12 numbered copies was made of this work. The Pablo Gargallo Museum has the original plates of the only four drypoint engravings by Gargallo (Self-Portrait, Harlequin's Head, Female Nude and Ballerina). Pablo Gargallo is considered the precursor of iron sculpture, and learned the technique of forging from his father, who owned a blacksmith shop. In 1888 his family emigrated to Barcelona for economic reasons and there he began his artistic training, in the workshop of the sculptor Eusebio Arnau and in the School of La Lonja, with Venancio Vallmitjana as his main teacher. At the height of Modernism in Barcelona, Gargallo frequented the gatherings of "Els quatre Gats", establishing relationships with artists such as Nonell and Picasso. That is why his first works are influenced by Modernism, as is the case of the decoration of Barcelona buildings that he made in collaboration with the architect Domènech i Montaner, such as the Hospital de la Santa Cruz y San Pablo or the Palau de la Música. In 1903 Gargallo obtained a scholarship that allowed him to travel to Paris to complete his studies. His stay in the French capital was brief, but from then until 1923, when he settled permanently in Paris, his trips there would be frequent. In this city he found the aesthetic formulations of cubism, assimilated its expressive systems and sought the schematism and essentiality of figures and objects, trying to find the authentic three-dimensional expression of the cubist postulates. During these years he began to use metallic materials such as sheet metal, copper and iron. Around 1911-12 he made his first masks, pieces of great simplification made with cut sheet metal, linked to the cubist aesthetic. Using sheet metal, Gargallo began to suggest volumes and exalt the voids through the penetration of light into the interiors. In 1920 he was appointed professor of sculpture at the Escuela Técnica de Oficios Artísticos de la Mancomunidad de Cataluña, a post from which he was removed in 1923 for political reasons. It was then that Gargallo settled permanently in Paris with his wife and daughter. From this moment on his style acquires a very personal dimension, derived from his interpretation of cubism, based on the search for a formal synthesis of the figure in geometric planes always fluid, replacing conventional materials with wrought iron sheets, and introducing a new sculptural language by introducing the void as volume and giving his figures a great expressive dramatism. Pablo Gargallo is currently represented in the museum that bears his name in Zaragoza, the MoMA in New York, MACBA in Barcelona, the Museum of Modern Art in Paris and the Reina Sofia in Madrid, among many others.

MARINO AMAYA (Astorga, León, 1927-Andalusia, 2014). Untitled. Patinated bronze. Signed in burin at the bottom of the back. Measurements: 12 x 5 x 5 x 5 cm (figure); 3 x 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 cm (base). Born in Astorga, Marino Amaya was in his early years shepherd, carpenter and weaver, although with only fifteen years he obtained his first commission as a sculptor, a statue of Santiago Apostle carved in stone. He began his artistic training at the School of Arts and Crafts in Salamanca, where he obtained a scholarship to travel to Madrid in 1945, in order to further his education. Four years later, in 1949, he began a long study trip that took him to France, Italy, Austria, Holland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Greece and, outside Europe, Egypt and Palestine. In 1950 Amaya returned to Spain and participated in the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid, being awarded a silver medal. This success earned him in 1951 an important commission from the bishopric of León, a grandiose monument dedicated to the Immaculate Conception. The following year he held his first exhibition, which took place at the Association of Writers and Artists of Madrid, and in 1954 he was presented for the first time in León, in an exhibition organized by the Provincial Council. Still in this decade he held exhibitions at the Ateneo de Santander (1956) and the Romantic Museum of Madrid (1957). In the sixties he worked intensely, also holding exhibitions in various Spanish capitals, in centers such as the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid (1962). Also during these years he made the international leap, appearing in 1961 in Rio de Janeiro. He will continue with his exhibition career in the seventies, and in 1974 he is named favorite son of Astorga, a town where a street will also be dedicated to him. In 1981 he held an outstanding exhibition at the Zoma Gallery in New York, where fifteen of his works were acquired by the Rockefeller Foundation. That same year he moved to Marbella, the city where he would live and work from then on, in conjunction with his studio in Madrid. In 1985 Pope John Paul II granted him an interview to see his work "The Right to Life", which was blessed by the Holy Father and is now part of the Vatican collection. This sculpture will initiate the creation of a series of works that Amaya dedicates to the life of children. Also very present in his work are animal figures, especially dogs and cats. He is a sculptor very committed to public sculpture, and today we can find works by his hand in public places all over Spain, as well as in the Mateo Hernández Museum in Béjar and other public and private collections.
