personal life experiences instantaneously.
This period could be defined as a journey
through a space that’s near to us, that’s familiar. Continually moving on is a basic condition; an artist’s style may change constantly
and it no longer matters about coherence;
the important thing is the daily transcription
of what’s happening, so that personal experiences move on to become collective.
The collection continues arguing that
art exists because some ideas can only be
expressed through images and these in turn
represent the spirit of their time. Seen from a
little distance 20th century art seems to have
created itself on a basis of sound affirmations,
but also from evolving, redefining and denying. It is only from this premise that we can
understand the cycle of ideas and anti-ideas
which have given us a very rich way of looking and seeing in the visual arts world.

the most significant feature was a return to
making more of the interpretative sense of the
work of art through re-reading history, understood as an event of the past but also of the
present. The model followed used drawing
and painting as a formula to show the reality
which surrounds us, using more emotional and
expressive images of what is closest to us.
The object – the word sculpture virtually disappeared – is installed in a space where there’s
no hierarchy, nothing totem-like. The volume is
no longer invented, but instead objects which
are all around us, like a collage, take us to a
more recognisable world. Photography and
new technologies become part of the tool box
broadening the field of communication and
facilitating the immediacy of the news.
This new visual syntax makes the content and the result of its representation displace
previous conceptual and utopian aspects,
towards others that are more spontaneous and
nihilistic though no less significant for that.
A certain lack of inhibition is emerging: anything can be done to communicate

The Fundació Suñol opened the Josep Suñol
Collection to the public in May 2007, with an
exhibition entitled 1915 – 1995, which included
some of the most outstanding pieces from the
permanent collection.
This first exhibition set out to present work
that was selected not according to any chronological criterion but more as a random journey
through 20th century avant-garde art.
The second part of the collection can be
seen in the exhibition, 1970 – 2001, which will
show examples of conceptual art, minimal art
and arte povera. It seems appropriate to exhibit
these works now as they are the tendencies
which closed a cycle characterised by a current
of extreme radicalism in its thinking, in dramatic
contrast to attitudes since then.
This show is very representative of the
late 20 th century. The special friendship and
understanding between the collector and most
of the notable artists of the time arising from his
visiting their studios and following their progress, has led to the fact that the pieces in this
show are a good example of what happened in
that particular period in the visual arts.
1970 – 2001 is mainly based on pieces
from the ‘80s and ‘90s, a period notable for certain movements which irrupted into the art scene:
the Transavanguardia italiana, German NeoExpressionism, Bad painting and New British
Sculpture. This new notion of art spread rapidly
to other countries, including Spain. What united
these new generations of artists was that they all
questioned the validity of the historic avant-garde
movements, stemming from a certain perception
of a weakening in the progress of art, a crisis
about the subject and the modern movement.
It could be said that all of these artists were
backing a major change in art practice. Perhaps
