 Sculptural painting by Ricardo Santamaria Circa 1970

Ricardo Santamaria born in 1920 in Saragosse, Spain, Ricardo Santamaria is an artist influenced by his work as woodworker and his Spanish roots to produce pieces that Dubuffet could have qualified as “Art Brut”: a pure art, far from any academic conventions. Santamaria has always worked seamlessly between painting and sculpture throughout his career. He started as a woodworker and was naturally driven to sculpture, but his aesthetical researches drove him to explore painting and its possible associations with sculpture, like his series of “sculpto-peintures.” Santamaria, through the use of waste materials in his work, tried to convey a critical view of the society and its overconsumption.
