Jaume Plensa Art
Spanish, b. 1955
Jaume Plensa, born in 1955 in Barcelona, is a renowned Spanish contemporary artist known for his monumental sculptures and installations. His innovative use of materials like steel, glass, and light has garnered international acclaim. Plensa's minimalist and abstract style often features human figures or faces, evoking themes of identity and communication. While he is primarily celebrated for his sculptures, Plensa has also ventured into poster art, creating captivating designs that reflect his artistic vision. These posters, characterized by their striking imagery and symbolic depth, serve as accessible representations of Plensa's larger body of work, contributing to his influence in both the contemporary art world and graphic design.to

Plensa BLACK AND WHITE, VERTICAL, MATERNITY, Untitled etching original
By Jaume Plensa
Located in CORAL GABLES - MIAMI, FL
Untitled 1 Etching original painting
number 12 of an edition of 15 engravings.
Jaume Plensa Suñé (Barcelona, 1955) is a Spanish plastic artist, sculptor and engraver. Very versatile artist who has also experimented with drawing, opera sets, video projections or acoustic installations.1 He is known for his large sculptures made up of letters and numbers.2
Born in Barcelona in 1955, he studied at the Llotja School and the Sant Jordi Superior School of Fine Arts.
Trajectory
In a first stage, his work reflects an interest in issues related to volume, space and tension. In 1983-1984 he began to mold iron with the casting technique and developed a sculptural concept of zoomorphic forms using cuts and folds. In 1986 he started working with cast iron, and later he used glass, resin, lights and sounds.
Since 1996 he has also been dedicated to creating elements and sets for opera and theater productions, mainly in collaboration with the company La Fura dels Baus. He also stands out as a draftsman and engraver.
In 2008 he made the sculpture called "Alma del Ebro" in Zaragoza (Aragon) on the occasion of the International Water Exhibition held there. This sculpture is 11 meters high and is located in front of the Palacio de Congresos, on the banks of the Ebro river. The letters represent cells of the human body, which is made up of more than 60% water. Its white letters and hollow structure invite the viewer to look inside and reflect on the relationship between human beings and water.
In December 2012, he was elected the winner of the 2013 National Prize for Graphic Art awarded by the National Calcography and which recognizes the artist's career in the field of graphic art.3
In 2012 he produced the poster for the Festival de la Mercè in Barcelona.
Honors

• 1993: Medaille des Chevaliers des Arts et Letres, Ministry of Culture, France.
