Francisco Bores (Madrid, 1898-1972) was one of the great figures of twentieth century European art. His presence was fundamental in the second wave of Spanish artists who arrived in Paris in the 1920s, although in his own country he was not really recognized until well into the 70s when aspects of Art that did not fit in with the dominant informalism and social realism were finally valued.
The style of Bores was forged following his close contact with the greatest painters of the first Vanguard: Picasso and Matisse. He admired his manner of constructing forms, his classicism, and later his cubist explosion. Bores harmonizes both of these influences in his work, and goes beyond them.
