AUTHOR: MARC CAMPS GANDILLÓ (CASSERRES, BERGUEDÁ, 1936-CUNIT, BAIX PENEDÉS, 2012). TITLE: “PORTRAIT OF A POET” (THE PAINTER GEORGE ROUAULT (1871-1958)). HAND SIGNED: "marc". (Pencil inscription on the back: “Retrat d'un poeta”). TECHNIQUE: Oil on canvas. Dimensions of the painting: 74 x 54 x 2.8 cm. Mounted with its frame onto an overframe. Dimensions with frame: 98 x 79 x 2.5 cm. Weight: 5 kg. Marc Camps Gandilló (Casserres, 1936 – Cunit, 2012) was a prominent Catalan painter whose Artwork is characterized by an Impressionist style with a profound influence of Vincent van Gogh, both in his use of color and the strength of his brushstrokes. The term "Retrat d'un poeta" (Portrait of a Poet) refers to the French artist Georges Rouault. (1871–1958) is often referred to as one of his Artworks where he explores the human figure with his characteristic expressionist style, marked by thick black outlines and intense colors reminiscent of medieval stained glass. The Mallorcan artist Marc Camps' admiration for Georges Rouault is a fundamental pillar in his artistic development and visual language. This connection is manifested primarily in the adoption of an aesthetic that prioritizes emotional intensity and robust formal structure. This Artwork is significant because it demonstrates Marc Camps' versatility and his ability to engage in dialogue with the great masters of European modernism. While his Greniers (Barns) series looks to Van Gogh, this "Portrait of a Poet" is a declaration of admiration for Rouault's spiritual expressionism. Georges Rouault (1871–1958) is often described as the "poet of art" for his unique ability to infuse a profound and compassionate spirituality into the rawest forms of expressionism. The title "poet of art" (or sometimes "Poet of the line") refers to how Rouault managed to make painting not just an image, but a form of "visual lyricism" imbued with spiritual meaning. "Homage" Series: Specific portraits, such as "Homage to Rouault," are more unique pieces within his oeuvre, and therefore, more valuable.

The paths and experiences that led him to this world of abstract art began unexpectedly. After years painting landscapes and figurative oil paintings, that moment was a ray of light, a spark of passion and enthusiasm, filled with thoughts and daydreams of expressing what chance, at times, flows through your mind with a sense of indifference. Motivation, sacrifice, and perseverance are necessary to achieve your own identity and allow you to visualize the unknown and profound inner world in order to transmit the gestural and informal magic onto the canvas, board, or paper. of a modus operandi that characterizes him. The creation of his Artworks allows him to communicate a style of influential sensations capable of attracting the viewer. My artistic journey began in the early 1980s with a strong inclination towards landscape painting and the use of oil paint, representing natural scenes with precision and sensitivity. This approach was focused on capturing the beauty of the environment through a figurative and technical language. Over time, I experienced an evolution in my style, moving away from realism to delve into abstract art. This change allowed me to free my creativity from formal limitations, exploring forms, colors, and textures that do not respond to a literal representation of the world, but rather to a more intimate and emotional reflection of my thoughts and perceptions. In abstraction, I found a freer and more personal medium to express what flows through my mind, allowing my emotions, ideas, and inner visions to take shape without restrictions. This transition marked a new stage in my Artwork, where gesture, spontaneity, and intuition became the protagonists. The content of this expression is the humble reflection of an abstract mind.
