It is with great sadness that I have learned of the unexpected
death of Juan Muñoz from a stomach haemorrhage on Tuesday
28 August 2001. His figurative art drew on Spanish tradition, but was informed by an understanding of modernist practice. It evolved steadily over a twenty year career and was much admired by his fellow artists, especially sculptors in Britain, where Muñoz studied from 1976-80. His work has been included in many solo and group exhibitions including at the DIA Center for the Arts, New York (1996), Documenta 9, Kassel (1992) and the Venice Biennale (1997). A major touring retrospective of his work is due to open in Washington DC in October 2001. His last haunting work, Double Bind,
was commissioned by Tate and is currently on display in the Turbine
Hall at Tate Modern. |
