The most intimate and least known work of Jaume Plensa, one of the leading figures on the international contemporary art scene. A unique exhibition that shows, for the first time, the influence that literature, language and the alphabet have had on his work
Jaume Plensa (Barcelona, 1955) is one of the best-known sculptors from the international contemporary sculpture scene at the turn of the 20th to the 21st century. His current work focuses on the human figure, where two essential vectors converge: the material and words.
The exhibition at La Pedrera-Casa Milà, which covers Plensa’s work from 1990 to the present day, highlights some key aspects of his sculpture and is developed around the relationship between the artist’s creative world and letters as an element making up his work.
Plensa’s relationship with literature, and especially with poetry, will form the thread linking this exhibition, which will also include other recurring themes from his career: silence, sleep, music and family.
