DESCRIPTION
YOU CAN WATCH this presentation with MUSIC on the link: http://www.authorstream.com/Presentation/sandamichaela-2341546-casas4/ Thank you! Ramon Casas i Carbó (1866–1932) was a Catalan Spanish artist. Living through a turbulent time in the history of his native Barcelona, he was known as a portraitist, sketching and painting the intellectual, economic, and political elite of Barcelona, Paris, Madrid, and beyond; he was also known for his paintings of crowd scenes ranging from the audience at a bullfight to the assembly for an execution to rioters in the Barcelona streets. Also a graphic designer, his posters and postcards helped to define the Catalan art movement known as modernism.

Together with Rusiñol, Casas was one of the founding members of the Els Quatre Gats circle of artists in Barcelona, and a leading representative of the Catalan Modernista movement. Casas abandoned his studies when he was 11 years old in order to pursue his vocation as a painter. In 1882, aged sixteen, and with the financial support of his father, he travelled to Paris with Santiago Rusiñol. There he studied under Carolus Duran and at the Académie Gervex, where Eugène Carrière and Puvis de Chavannes taught. His talent did not go unnoticed, and just a year later he exhibited at the Salon des Champs Elysées. In 1900 Casas held a solo show at the Sala Parés in Barcelona, establishing him as the leading Catalan portrait painter of the day.Casas' mother purchased the monastery of Sant Benet de Bages in 1907 and hired Puig i Cadafalch to restore it. Casas would spend much time there, and would repeatedly depict the monastery and its surroundings. Five years later, when his mother died, he inherited the monastery. In 1913 he acquired an architecturally notable home in Barcelona, a tower on Carrer de San Gervasi (now Carrer de les Carolines). By the 1920s, Casas had fallen far away from the avant-gardiste tendencies of his youth. If anything, his work from this period looks like it came from an academic painter of an earlier time than his work of the 1890s. He continued painting landscapes and portraits, as well as anti-tuberculosis posters and the like, but by the time of his death in 1932, shortly after the emergence of the Second Spanish Republic, he was already more a figure of the past than the present.

Ramon Casas i Carbó (1866–1932)
Recognised as one of the masterpieces of ukiyo-e style (“pictures of the floating world”) and inspiring “Japonism”, a cultural and artistic trend that invaded Europe in the second half of the 19th century, “The great wave off Kanagawa” served as inspiration to Ramon Casas, when it came to decorating the walls of the “Salón de las Sirenas” in Hotel España.When, at the beginning of the 20th century, the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner began work to renovate the hotel, he entrusted the painter Ramon Casas with the task of decorating the dining room. Casas, who, together with artist and writer Santiago Rusiñol, was one of the main introducers of Modernism into Catalonia, covered this room’s wall with a spectacular recreation of a seabed halfway between reality and fantasy, inhabited by mermaids, Mediterranean fish, crustaceans and cephalopods, on a background of light colours and embossed waves.
