AGUSTÍ PUIG: Between Myth and Matter
Agustí Puig is without doubt a Catalan artist, embodying that region’s restless, inventive energy and philo-sophical questioning. While Catalonia’s rich cultural history reaches back to ancient times, its capital Barce-lona has been regarded, since the end of the nineteenth-century, as a nexus of avant-garde activity. Puig is at home here—literally and fi guratively, an heir apparent to its most renowned and radical modernist artists: Joan Miró, Antoni Tàpies, and Pablo Picasso; not to mention the Catalan masters of other mediums: architect Antoni Gaudi; poet Salvador Espiru, and musician and composer Pablo Casals. Barcelona still resounds with the chorus of their voices. Puig has listened to all of them, and boldly found his own. Among contemporary artists today, his work offers a remarkable unity of thought and form, a powerful and intimate fusion of poetic and material elements.
Over the last twenty-fi ve years, Agustí Puig has gained international prominence, exhibiting widely not only throughout Spain, but in Europe, the United States, Taiwan and Japan. His paintings, sculptures, and works on paper are increasingly sought after by collectors and museums. He is particularly beloved in his native country, where he was a fi nalist for the XXIV International Prize from the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona. He has also received commissions to create posters, murals, and other public monuments. Most importantly, Barcelona’s Fundació Vila Casas, opened in 1986 to highlight the leading artists of Spain and now viewed throughout Europe as an important venue for contemporary art, includes a signifi cant collection of Puig’s works, spanning his entire career.
Given his place in Spanish culture, it’s not surprising that when Woody Allen went seeking a model for the artist characters in Viki Cristina Barcelona (2008), played by Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz, the direc-tor landed in Puig’s studio. Puig’s paintings appear throughout the fi lm, and the artist tutored Cruz to bring
greater authenticity to her role.
Recently Puig was honored with a prestigious one-man show at the Can Framis Museum, in Bar-celona. This was followed in New York by his inaugural show at the Franklin Bowles Galleries in
December 2014. The beginning of 2015 was marked by a radically ambitious installation of 100 engravings made with Joan Roma, his long-time printmaker, at the Alella in Barcelona.
With his youthful face and compact, athletic build, Puig could easily pass for younger than his fi fty-eight years. Constantly moving, gesturing, drawing, Puig’s body pulses with an energy that cannot be contained. It’s a physical demonstration as eloquent as speaking about his art. His wife Lola, a medical professional and researcher, is a well-matched partner (and yin to Puig’s yang, so to speak), who clearly understands the artist’s mind and soul and con-tributes a layer of calm and order to their family life and the daily operations of the studio.
Agustí’s studio is in a converted textile mill, enormous and fi lled with light. The building’s spacious industrial origins allow the artist to envision and create his extremely large-scaled works. Sketchbooks abound, drawers contain works on paper; dozens of canvases lean against the walls in different states. It is a place of work, action, and constant experimentation. Puig might begin with a large canvas propped against the wall; a suggestion of the human fi gure is
summoned in a few lines. Thrown upon the fl oor, this body now joins the earth, and a pool of paint is poured and spread in a dance of the artist’s hand. From this, a profi le appears in white;
then another within it, but black. Fine lines are etched into the image and the world from which it is emerging—calligraphic notes from a forgotten language, ideas from a restless sleep. More
paint layers are added, amplifying, altering, even occluding the forms that came before. The visceral power of Puig’s images comes from his direct and energetic physical approach to each
and every work.

Puig is unafraid of the accidental. Indeed, the spontaneity of his process involves entering into an almost shaman-like trance while working. Allowing the liquidity of his medium to prompt him, he relies upon intuition to coax meaning from the raw materials. As he insists, “When I start a painting, I never know how it will turn out.” A tear or spill easily becomes a source of inspiration; a collaged element can take the work in a completely unexpected direction. One can’t help but draw comparison with the similarly absorbed and performative activity of Abstract Expressionism’s most famous painter, Jackson Pollock.
Puig’s engagement with the subject of the human fi gure remains a constant. His oeuvre is comprised of colossal beings, alone or in communion with one another, the earth and the universe. Men and women: aged philosophers, maidens, wanderers, lovers, orators, ritual initiates, aggressively or amorphously rendered, may even momentarily disappear, but always re-emerge within the artist’s work. Some fi gures are ambiguous; neither male nor female, nor entirely human; some are minotaurs, others are winged, evoking sphinxes; others seem part canine. Fragments abound: cropped male and female torsos, supple backs and buttocks, and most frequently, disembodied, monumental heads or faces, shown in profi le. Often these fl oat above, in mysteri-ous relation to exaggerated oversize legs, hands, or feet. Some of these body parts morph into stylized glyphs signifying thought, feeling, motion—or some combination thereof. These may be emblems of loss or nostalgia for the past, invoking a longing for an earlier civilization, or suggestions of man in his most essentialized state. Puig’s fantastical, hybrid lexicon seems drawn as much from Surrealism as from an ancient, mythic Mediter-ranean realm.
Pablo Picasso’s presence is undeniably felt—in the audacity and inventiveness of Puig’s forms and in his facility in conjuring the body’s range of voluptuous, heroic, and tragic contours. Likewise, the underlying eroticism marking much of Puig’s art—especially in his monumental, contemplative women, reclining nudes, and bearded men with their beautiful companions, evokes Picasso’s classicized imagery of the 1930s and ‘40s. The mysterious anatomy and proportions of Puig’s fi guration also call to mind Joan Miró’s pervasive and ever-curious, synthetic language of personal symbols: strange synecdoches, mystical hybrids, monstrous creatures, and animated, wiry black lines, which remain unrestricted by the laws of gravity or logic.
Among his countrymen, however, Puig’s closest affi nity is with the highly intuitive, enigmatic, and in-tensely material art of Antoni Tàpies, who passed away in 2012. Working in a style known as pin-tura matérica (matter painting), Tàpies’ practice was strongly connected to the broader postwar currents of European existentialists: Jean Dubuffet, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Fautrier, among oth-ers associated with the Art Informel movement, who began using new techniques and non-artis-tic materials in unorthodox and improvisational ways in their paintings. In accord with his innova-tive and philosophically-driven spirit, Tàpies pushed the boundaries of decorum and pictorialism for decades—incorporating distortion, fragmentation, scrafi tti, and roughly-impastoed surfaces, with pure pigment, grit, sand, and varnish, presenting viewers with a more poetically—probing and confrontationally—visceral encounter with art than had ever come before.

Puig is unafraid of the accidental. Indeed, the spontaneity of his process involves
entering into an almost shaman-like trance while working.
According to the Catalan artist, his innovative and philosophically-driven exploration of materiality, of wrestling with its baseness and employing its most humble, even disagreeable elements within his art was tied to notions of mysticism, even spirituality in the everyday. He believed that if matter is always in fl ux, it could be creatively, alchemically transformed, and that, in turn, art ultimately had the ability to transform the realities of both the artist and viewer.
BETWEEN MYTH AND MATTER
Like his famous predecessor, Puig has been drawn to the infi nite risks, associations, and transformative possibilities of matter, action, and intuitive processes. This is evident in his varied surfaces, primarily worked up in neutral pigments of beige, ochre, black, terracotta, and white: the shades of earth, clay, parchment, dust, sand, and stone, organically enriched here or there with touches of aubergine or teal. Vibrant punctuations of red, suggestive of mineral deposits, fi erce war paint, or ancient Pompeian walls, compel our immediate attention, while dense rubbery elements, fl uid trails and crusty masses of fl eshy pink, white, and ochre (which strongly recall the tactility of Tàpies’ surfaces), offer a corporeal experience that is equal parts sensuous and uncanny.
Refl ecting the story of direct, physical creation and spontaneous alchemy, Puig’s works express an exciting “presentness.” But their very materiality also seems to link them back to a primordial past. Distant, mono-lithic fi gures and abraded grounds convey the passage of time, a palimpsest of experiences, somehow retrieved and brought into view. As in the art of Cy Twombly, who was likewise fascinated by the strata of Mediter-ranean history, culture, and myth, enormous meaning is held within the subtleties of dulled whites—evoking marble and fresco, time, wear, and the ritual of use. In a form of personal archeology, Puig seems to continu-ally excavate his own psyche, asking formal and philosophical questions by digging into layered surfaces.
Hovering as it does between the themes of ancient past and immediate present, earth and cosmos, contour and mass, fi gure and fragment, myth and matter, Puig’s art seems to refl ect a state of duality, even contradic-tion, appropriate to our own complicated era. Beckoning us, whispering, witnessing, crying out, Puig’s fi gures seem to wrestle with the question that has occupied man since the beginning of time. What does it mean to be human? In the well-known Sophoclean tragedy, on the road to Thebes, Oedipus successfully answers the monstrous Sphinx’s perplexing life-or-death riddle by responding, “Man is the creature that walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon and three in the evening.” But, in surviving the critical test with this simple, intuitive answer, the archetypal hero realizes that his own existential journey, his quest for answers to the deeper meaning of life, has only just begun.
Likewise, Agustí Puig continues on his path of discovery, without a road map...culling poetry from matter, and boldly negotiating and representing the intertwined human myths and precarious truths of the 21st century.
