Miguel Amate

$22,199
Artist-painter and creator of dolls-sculptures.
He lived for more than thirty years in his workshop-gallery in the Marais of Paris, freeing himself from the site to wander as a nomad through the Parisian macadam in order to be closer to human reality and rediscover the unusual and profound side of it , as well as in Mallorca where he spends some seasons.
Of Catalan-Majorcan origin but born in Cartagena, Spain, in 1944. From a military family. He studied in religious schools, he began to paint at the age of seven in this city, the arid landscapes that surrounded him, the favorite places of play and creation of him.
He later studied art in the workshop of Don Vicente Ros and Alonso Luzzy. An education that gives him the foundations of classical painting and admiration for the great Spanish masters, such as Velázquez, Goya, and Greco. Parallel to his classical and violent works, he creates ensembles of diverse materials: wood, ropes, fabrics, rusty metals, random objects found in those lands burned by the sun where, once exorcised, they were adopted to form part of artistic ensembles with another function. .
In the sixties, described by his teachers as "tremendous" and "brutal", he abandoned them... he abandoned everything to tour Europe: in Sweden he worked on monumental sculpture in wrought iron for the Stockholm Cultural Center; in Germany and London he makes drawings and paintings with a strong psychedelic tendency; Finally, in 1969, he settled in Paris, founding a family that lived with him in the workshop.
At the beginning of the seventies, he continues his paintings, reliefs and doll-sculptures or sculptures-Grotesque and sexual paintings, in the silence of the basement of his workshop-gallery-home, where he turns this space into the first Artbrutal museum, being regularly visited by a good audience enthusiastic about this unusual work and in the heart of Paris. Giving this neighborhood a dynamic-creative thrust and reason for being.
The Artbrutal, born in this ghetto-swamp where time had stopped and the royal institutions sunk in the past emerged different and liberated, giving rise to this form of art, now it is… - Le Marais! Even without the Artbrutal by Miguel Amate that the swamp welcomed for several aesthetic dozens, words that Philippe Soupeau commented on in one of those casual encounters, in a Paris of encounters and ruptures.
