About Miguel Guía
Miguel Guía was born on 29 October 1960 in Madrid. He grew up surrounded by art in his family’s foundry and sculpture workshop, where he had contact with artistic design from a very early age. Surrounded by various artists, he developed extensive sculpting skills.
His initial style was mainly inspired by Cubism, drawing inspiration from Picasso and Manolo Valdés. He continued the cubist style for years and also embarked on a journey into Realism. Over the years, he has developed his unique style, which he calls "Art Essence," which he understands as "breaking the mould to find the essence of the sculpture."
Term for an art object (sculpture, installation), which is produced in multiple copies in a limited and numbered edition according to the artist‘s will.
Artist's multiples have been called the most accessible and affordable art on the market.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures from wood, ivory or stone are made directly from the block of material, in bronze casting a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
