The Catman

The Catman (Paris 1966)

In 1966 a child was born in Paris. He grew up and became an adult in Barcelona.

He likes to draw and get lost in the world of ideas. He starts by winning competitions in high school and outside, creating logos, graphics and also furniture. He studies at the fine arts of Barcelona. He decorates, draws, paints, paints, paints, writes his little things, designs objects, invents textile prints, creates ephemeral architecture ... anything capable of being interpreted, possessed by the irreducible spirit of The Catman.

To his world, he gives it the form of a shop, refuge of objects and ideas and a meeting point for designers and artists of the city. Six years later reality devours the dream, the Catman returns to his little things and leaps into the unreal world of advertising as creative and artistic director.

To compensate for this mental leap, he actively participates in the realistic and idealistic world of NGOs, helping to draw the little extra so that the message goes loud and clear.

Currently, he focuses on hanging his paintings on the walls of tenderness and works alongside the advertising strategy of a pioneering organization of volunteers.

He is convinced that being able to help people feel good is a very powerful gift, and giving comes with obligation.

Here and There has been collaborating and representing The Catman since 2005. His works have toured the world.

They are exhibited and sold in Barcelona, Hong-Kong, Paris, Athens, New York, London….

Artist The Catman has his own artistic language between action painting and pop art, with a characteristic combination of lines and texts, both in small and very large formats.

Written words give rhythm to his paintings full of colors and contrasts, thus creating a universal language. “Creativity is my religion".
