Lucio Muñoz

Madrid, 1929

Lucio Muñoz was a Spanish painter considered one of the leading figures of abstract informalism in Spain. He stood out for his experimentation with unconventional materials (earth, resins, and pigments mixed with glues) and, above all, for his innovative use of wood as an artistic support. These characteristics gave his artwork a tactile, organic aesthetic that became a hallmark of his informalist production.

Born in Madrid and trained at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando, Muñoz began his career painting landscapes and still lifes before turning to abstraction in 1955. That year, he started creating collages on canvas using pigments, sand, and varnishes, which opened new avenues for material experimentation. In 1958, after a stay in Paris where he encountered European informalism, he began using plywood panels as the main support for his paintings. From that moment on, wood became a central element in his artwork, allowing for free and gestural exploration on its surface.

Lucio Muñoz’s artwork achieved international recognition, participating in major group exhibitions such as the Venice Biennale (1960), Documenta in Kassel (1972), and shows in Basel. In 1989, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid held a major retrospective of his career, cementing his place in the history of Spanish art. He received several major awards, including the National Prize for Fine Arts (1983) and the Gold Medal of Merit in the Fine Arts (1993). Today, his artwork is held in renowned public and private collections.
