Simo Busom

Simó Busom i Grau (Barcelona, 1927 – November 25, 2020) was a Catalan landscape painter. He trained as a painter at the Acadèmia Baixas, and in his early works the influence of Rafael Benet and Ramon Rogent is noticeable, to later evolve into a very personal Cubism that tends towards a certain agile and spontaneous Fauvism. At a professional level, he started in the world of watercolor, then moved on to oil painting. He belonged to the group of painters of the well-known Sala Parés. During 1969 he painted some landscapes in Cadaqués.
