Ésser del Cap (1977–78).

A pair of works by a Catalonian artist whose varied and occasionally Surrealist output can be viewed here. There’s further work and career details here but not in English. Via.

    As a good Catalonian, the influences of Salvador Dali on his work are quite evident. I didn’t know this artist, tks for posting some samples of the work, it’s very nice indeed!

    Me, again. Checking the guy’s work, I see he won a prize in Brazil, back in 1965, at Sao Paulo’s Biannual. Also, I see that his work has influenced many contemporary artists, you’ll probably agree. The man had a troubled life, as stated in the informations there, but was one hell of an artist!
