The work of Valencian artist Jordi Teixidor (b. 1941), a leading figure of Spanish abstraction, takes centre stage in this exhibition. Spanning over six decades, from the 1960s to the present day, the display features more than fifty pieces that trace the evolution of Teixidor’s artistic journey. Open to visitors from 19 February to 19 April.
The exhibition titled “No-res” — meaning “Nothingness” — explores different periods of Teixidor's extensive career, examining the concept of absence as a space where presence is born. More than a retrospective, this exhibition is a meditative encounter with Teixidor’s art and his intimate diary.
The highlight is his 31 previously unseen notebooks, showcasing sketches and works produced from 1965 to today.
Jordi Teixidor is celebrated for his nearly monochromatic paintings and his masterful use of black, a signature that has earned him a place among Spain’s most influential abstract artists.
His works feature in prestigious international collections, including The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, IVAM in Valencia, Fundación Juan March, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
In 2014, Teixidor received the National Award for Plastic Arts from Spain’s Ministry of Culture, and since 2002, he has been a full member of the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts.
