22.9.1930 Born in Huesca, HU (ES)
Antonio Saura's artistic career began with an interest in the Surrealist movement, but a meeting with André Breton in Paris during the mid 1950s combined with political unrest in Spain to move him towards a much more expressionist style that led him to feel more at home with members of the COBRA group.
He was included in exhibitions of the Situationist group (with whom Alechinsky, Appel, Corneille, and Jorn also exhibited), and his art became more political in protest against the Franco regime.
He was one of the founders of the El Paso group, which popularized Art Informel in Spain.
He won the Guggenheim Prize in 1960 and the Carnegie Prize in 1964.
His work has been shown in museums and galleries in the U.S. and Europe; his principal one-person shows include such venues as the Museum of Contemporary Art, Madrid (1956), Galerie Stadler, Paris (1957 & 1979), Falerie Van de Loo, Munich (1959), Pierre Matisse Gallery, NY (1961), the Stedelijk Museum, Eindhoven (1963), the Rotterdamsche Kunsling (1963), the Musée de Buenos Aires (1963), the Musée de Rio de Janeiro (1963), the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (1964), the Kunsthalle, Baden-Baden (1964), the Kunsthallen, Göteborg (1964), Institute of Contempory Art, London (1965), Galerie Maeght, Barcelona (1975 & 1984), and the Abbaye de Sénanque, Gordes (1985), among others.
