Published to accompany the exhibition showing in Avignon in 2010, this book presents an ensemble of recent works by acclaimed Spanish artist Miquel Barcel.
Jean Clottes, anthropologist and pre-history specialist, explores the instinctive and technical dimension in Barcel's work; Alberto Manguel contributes an essay on ten years of artistic creation, from solitary studio paintings, monumental commissions and the Palma Cathedral to the massive domed ceiling at the United Nations in Geneva. Finally, Eric Mzil interviews the artist, the fruit of long conversations held in Paris, Majorca and Avignon.
