BIOGRAPHY<\/p>\n<\/div>

Julio Gonz\u00e1lez Pellicer<\/strong> (Barcelona, 1876 \u2013 Arcueil, France, 1942) was a remarkable Spanish artist who began his career in painting and drawing but went down in history as the great father of modern iron sculpture.<\/p>\n

In his early years in Barcelona and Paris, Julio Gonz\u00e1lez created beautiful pastel and oil portraits and landscapes in an intimate style. However, his true artistic revolution came when he decided to apply his goldsmithing skills to monumental sculpture.<\/p>\n

Thanks to his mastery of industrial welding and following his collaboration with Pablo Picasso, he began using iron rods and sheets to fuse Cubism with abstraction.<\/p>\n

His greatest achievement was learning to draw in space with metal, creating iconic, powerful works that forever changed the course of 20th-century sculpture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
