Reduced geometric sculptures and paintings characterize the work of José Pedro Croft (1957), one of the greatest contemporary Portuguese artists. In the 1980s, he began his long journey through sculpture, using industrial materials, such as wood and metal, on glass or mirror surfaces. With an architectural dimension created through the application of materials and pigments, his sculptures and paintings conceive a game of tension, defragmentation and deconstruction between light, shadow and color. He represented Portugal at the 57th Venice Biennale in 2017 and his works can be found in several national and international museums, including the Berardo Collection Museum in Lisbon, the Elvas Museum of Contemporary Art, the Pompidou Center in France and the Queen Sofia Museum in Spain. ver menos
