Josep Plandiura

Since his career began in the mid-60s, Plandiura has taken part in over 30 solo and collective exhibitions in galleries and museums throughout the world. He managed the work of 40 national and international artists at the Triangle de Barcelona under the direction of English sculptor Anthony Caro and was chosen as a guest artist at the Triangle Artist’s Workshop in Pine Plains (New York) where he collaborated with well-known architects and sculptors from the USA.

He went on to create the group Formes d’ Avui (Forms of Today) which enabled him to familiarize himself with the design and construction of small and medium sized iron sculptures. Over time, Plandiura’s work has developed into significantly larger scale pieces, measuring up to four meters high. Nowadays he is considered a leading expert on corten steel and most recently he has undertaken several projects in historical and religious buildings in Barcelona. His work features in public and private collections worldwide.
