ANDREU ALFARO HERNÁNDEZ, (La Huerta, Valencia, 1929 - 2012). "Calatá Power (B)" 1967. Sculpture in stainless steel polychrome red, copy 87/500. Signed and numbered on the base. Referenced in the catalog raisonné, page 219. Measurements: 38 x 10.5 x 10.5 cm. Sculptor related to the Parpalló Group (1957), and influenced by Jorge Oteiza and the constructivists, like Brancusi or Pevsner, from his first works of importance Andreu Alfaro manifested his preoccupation to integrate the sculpture in a defined architectural space. In 1961, with "La Rella", he began a second stage in which he concretized the link between artistic activity and the social community, followed by "La veu d'un poble" (1964-65) and "Monument a l'amor" (1965-66). During these years he acquired international renown through his participation in the 1966 Venice Biennale, where he showed "My black brother". During the last years of the sixties Alfaro entered a new stage, in which he experimented with metallic elements, creating works of kinetic character or spatial research. From this period are well known samples "Bon dia llibertat" (1975) and "Catalan power" (1976). Also during these years he began to show a special interest in large sculptures, which he exhibited in the Cervantes Park in Barcelona (1977). He also designed several monuments such as the "Monument als Països Catalans" in Tárrega (1981). This period also marks the beginning of his international projection and, undoubtedly, the moment of maturity of one of the most important Catalan sculptors. However, around 1980 he sought to recover an almost calligraphic stylization in his works, which led him to experiment with wire. At the same time, he begins to incorporate marble into his production, which can be defined as a fair combination of lucid elements and constructive purism. The geometric structure of his works, always changing according to the observer's point of view, is always endowed with a great plastic force. In 1983 Alfaro made a sculpture in homage to the painter E. Sempere in Madrid. During this period he also created other outdoor sculptures in Frankfurt (1986), Madrid (1990) and Barcelona (1991). In 1996 he installed in Tarrasa a sculpture dedicated to the working woman, in 1999 he erected the "Columnes de l'Autònoma" in the university of Barcelona, and in 2001 he made a monument in memory of the victims of Nazism in Vilanova i la Geltrú. On the occasion of the Verdaguer year, in 2002 a monumental commemorative sculpture of the Catalan poet was inaugurated in the city of Vic, and in 2003 he created the sculpture "Ones" at the entrance to Barcelona. Throughout his career, Alfaro has held solo exhibitions in Spain as well as in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, and has taken part in important group exhibitions around the world. He has also received numerous awards, including the Jaume I Honor Award (1980), the National Plastic Arts Award (1981) and the Alfons Roig Plastic Arts Award from the Diputación de Valencia (1991). He is currently represented at the Reina Sofía Museum and the Conde Duque Center in Madrid, the IVAM and the Patio Herreriano in Valladolid, among others. Referenced in the catalog raisonné, p. 219.

FRÉDÉRIC BRULY (Zéprégüé, Ivory Coast, 1923 - Abidjan, Ivory Coast 2014). "Un bel homme courant vers son amant", 2008. Ballpoint pen and crayons on cardboard. Signed and dated on the back. Provenance: Private collection / Family of the artist. Measurements: 25,5 x 18 cm. During the Second World War, Bruly worked as a sailor in the French Navy in the Antilles. At the end of the war he was employed on the Dakar-Niger railroad in Rufisque (Senegal). Having left the railway service in December 1945, he started as an employee in the "judicial identity service of the "general security in West Africa", in Dakar. From there he was assigned, in 1958, to the direction of police security in Ivory Coast. The Ministry of the Civil Service assigned him to the Ministry of the Interior, to the Directorate of Political Affairs in Abidjan, and the Directorate of the French Institute of Black Africa (IFAN), upon discovering that he was the inventor of an African alphabet, asked the Ministry of the Interior to transfer him to IFAN in Abidjan in 1958. The direction of the Faculty of Letters of the National University of the Republic of Ivory Coast having approved the scientific character and the classical sense of his manuscripts of which he came into possession, asked, in its turn, for their transfer to the university: service of the institute of ethnosociology, in 1973. The origin of all the work of Frédéric Bruly Bouabré comes from a revealing experience: on March 11, 1948, "the heavens opened before my eyes and seven colored suns described a circle of beauty around their Mother-Sun, I became Cheik Nadro: He who does not forget." Since then, Bouabré compiled his research in manuscripts dealing with art, traditions, poetry, tales, religion, aesthetics and philosophy, revealing himself as an astonishing thinker, poet, encyclopedist, creator. Seeking a way to preserve and transmit the knowledge of the Bété people and the world, he invented a unique alphabet of 448 monosyllabic pictograms, an inventory of sounds that would make it possible to transcribe all the languages of the world.This endeavor earned Bouabré the legendary reputation of being another Champollion and translates the universal thought of Frederic Bruly Bouabré who, from his vision, seeks to unite and pacify humanity. In the 1970s, he began to translate his thought into hundreds of small drawings in postcard format, using ballpoint pen and colored pencils. These drawings, collected under the title Connaissance du Monde (Knowledge of the World), form an encyclopedia of universal knowledge and experience. His works are currently held in important art collections among which are; Contemporary African Art Collection, Jean PIGOZZI Collection, Geneva, Switzerland, the National Museum of Abidjan, Abidjan, Ivory Coast, the National Museum of Modern Art, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France, the Endowment Fund, Agnès b Collection, Paris, France, the François Pinault Foundation, Palazzo Grassi, Venice, Italy, MNAM, Centre Georges Pompidou on deposit at the Musée des Arts d'Afrique et d'Océanie, Paris, France, the Groninger Museum, Groningen, The Netherlands, the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo, Mexico City, Mexico, the Tanya RUMPFF Gallery, Haarlem, The Netherlands, the Tate Modern, London, United Kingdom, the Musée d'Art Brut, Lausanne, Switzerland, the Lambert Collection (LAC), Geneva, Switzerland, the Madame and Monsieur David-Weill Collection, Paris, France and the Gervane et Matthias Leridon Collection, Paris, France.

José Mirabent estudió en la Escuela de La Lonja de Barcelona, donde fue discípulo de Pablo Milá Fontanals, Claudio Lorenzale y Segismundo Ribó, de quienes recibió la influencia de la estética nazarí. En 1855 ingresó como ayudante en la citada escuela, obteniendo en 1872 la categoría de profesor de pintura decorativa, tejidos y estampas.

Posteriormente se especializó en la decoración de interiores, actividad en la que destacan sus trabajos para el Gran Teatro del Liceo y la Universidad de Barcelona, el Museo Balaguer de Vilanova i la Geltrú y las iglesias madrileñas del Buen Suceso, las Salesas Reales y el convento de las Madres Reparadoras. Con sus cuadros de flores y frutas participó en las Exposiciones Nacionales de Bellas Artes, en Madrid, y obtuvo varios premios: mención honorífica en las de 1856 y 1858, tercera medalla en las de 1860 y 1867, y condecoración en 1871. También fue galardonado con una medalla de oro en la Exposición Universal de Barcelona de 1888. Como retratista retrató a Pablo Piferrer, Ramón Anglasells y Joaquín Rey Esteve, entre otros. En 1892 participó en el Primer Festival Modernista. Está ampliamente representado en el MNAC, así como en el Museo del Prado, el Museo de Arte Moderno y el Museo Romántico de Madrid, la Real Academia de Sant Jordi, el Ateneo y la Galería de Catalanes Ilustres de Barcelona, etc.
