Contemporary Artists from Spain
Imago Mundi - Luciano Benetton Collection

Texts by Luciano Benetton, Fernando Francés, Helena Juncosa

Inspirations, interpretations, trends: 200 works by established artists and emerging talents in a collection whose protagonist is the new creative identity of Spain. Different artistic languages draw on a wealth of styles and techniques (figurative, hyper-realistic, abstract, conceptual, collage, photography), shapes (some artists go beyond the two-dimensional with almost sculptural works) and an extreme variety of themes (internal conflicts, landscapes, faces and glances, the economic crisis). A glowing crucible of ancient and very modern cultures, intimate –always sincere- emotions, at the heart of which lie man and his existence, History and the histories of every day.

Spain. Identity / Modernity. Contemporary Artists from Spain is an Imago Mundi collection, a cultural, democratic, global, non-profit project, promoted by Luciano Benetton with the aim of creating the widest possible mapping of the different contemporary artistic experiences of our world. In Imago Mundi, each country is represented by the works of established artists and new talents, commissioned with the maximum freedom of expression, whose only constraint is the 10x12cm format.
