Francisco Farreras is an artist born in Barcelona on September 7, 1927. After the Civil War, his family moved to Murcia and later to Tenerife, where he began his art studies under the tutelage of painters Antonio Gómez Cano and Mariano de Cossío. In 1943, he settled in Madrid and studied at the School of San Fernando, where he graduated as a Drawing Professor in 1949. During his artistic career, Farreras has stood out for his work in geometric abstraction, influenced by his trip to France in the 1950s. In the 1960s, he focused on the production of collages with tissue paper, clearly inspired by the East. In the 1980s, he became interested in wood and its expressive power, creating works assembled onto a surface. Starting in 2004, Farreras began experimenting with new techniques and materials in search of synthesis in his works. It wasn't until 2006 that he began exhibiting his work, which led him to receive the Medal of the Madrid Association of Art Critics for the best exhibition of 2006. Since then, his work has been exhibited in numerous galleries and art centers, both in Spain and in Portugal and Germany. Farreras's work is characterized by his ability to synthesize forms, colors, and materials, achieving a refined aesthetic and great expressive capacity. His work has been highly praised by critics and has received important recognition in the world of contemporary art. Today, his artistic legacy is a reference for new generations of artists in Spain and around the world.
