About
Why this artist matters now
José María Sicilia works across painting, sculpture, and installation, moving fluidly between abstraction and figuration. Born in Spain in 1954, his practice engages with postwar European artistic traditions and contemporary material experimentation. His work demonstrates a sustained interest in how form and surface can register both historical inheritance and present-day concerns.
