    JOSEP CLARÀ I AYATS (Olot, Girona, 1878 - Barcelona, 1958). "Female nude". Terracotta sculpture. Signed. Measurements: 21 x 19 x 15 cm. Josep Clarà begins his formation in the School of Drawing of Olot, with Josep Berga i Boix, and later he will study sculpture in the School of Fine Arts of Toulouse, France. After finishing his studies, he went to Paris in 1890, where he worked in the workshop of Louis Barrias and met Maillol, Bourdelle and Rodin. In fact, the advice of the latter helped him to overcome the modernist influences of his early works. In 1907 he presented at the Salon des Artistes Français the work "Torment", a work that denotes a Rodinian influence that in his marble "Twilight" (1913, Museo de Santiago de Chile), whose plaster model he presented at the Salon de la Société Nationale in 1908, is diluted in favor of a greater clarity and serenity. The following year he presented what would be the first of his goddesses, a work that finally represented the definitive official recognition of his talent. A tireless worker, he received several commissions for monuments, such as "Serenity over the ruins of life" (San Isidro cemetery, Madrid) and "Monument to the Catalan volunteers" (Ciutadella Park, Barcelona). With the model of the latter he won the grand prize in Paris in 1925. At the end of that same year he was appointed member of the Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid. Clarà also made heads and portraits, where he showed a condensed and lively language. In 1928 he created "Reposo" (MACBA), which earned him the medal of honor at the International Exhibition of Barcelona (1929), and in 1934 he won the Damià Campeny prize. In 1936 he created one of his best works, for the synthesis of simplicity, light and serenity: "Pujanza". He is also the author of the "Monumento a los caídos" (1952) in Barcelona.) With the nude "Pomona" (Museum of Havana) he won the grand prize at the 1954 Hispano-American Biennial. In 1946 he made a "San Benito" (Montserrat) that oriented him towards the study of the seated figure. Thus, his last works will be mainly seated maternities and lying figures. In 1969 was inaugurated in Barcelona the museum that bears his name, where a large part of his work is preserved. It is also present in the Regional Museum of the Garrotxa in Olot and in the National Museum of Art of Catalonia, among others.

    Est: €7,500 - €8,000

    JOSEP CLARÀ I AYATS (Olot, Girona, 1878 - Barcelona, 1958). "La voluntad". Patinated bronze bust. Veined marble base. Signed on the right side. With stamp M. BALLARIN Y CIA, Barcelona. Work published in the copy "José Clará", Tipografía Artística Cervantes, Madrid, page 18. It presents marks of use and wear. The base has some chipping. A sculpture of the same characteristics is conserved in the office of Joan Maragall (1860-1911), a room that the Maragall family called "the confessional" due to the number of visitors that attended the poet, and in the School of Fine Arts of San Fernando, Madrid. Measurements: 36 x 25 x 27 cm (sculpture); 6 x 28 x 29 cm (base). The first sculpture of "La Voluntad" may have been made by Josep Clará around 1911. We can base this statement on the fact that this original sculpture (the same as the one we are now bidding for) was given by the sculptor from Olot himself to the poet Joan Maragall as a token of gratitude for his "Toast to Clarà", made in 1911 at the Maison Dorée. The toast was read at a gathering organized as a tribute to Clarà because he had not been awarded the medal VI Exposició Internacional d'Art de Barcelona, an award that personalities such as Maragall felt he deserved. Another version of "The Will" that is known is currently preserved in the Academy of San Fernando, being the pledge of entry into the academy by the artist. Josep Clarà began his training at the School of Drawing in Olot, with Josep Berga i Boix, and later studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts in Toulouse, France. After finishing his studies, he went to Paris in 1890, where he worked in the workshop of Louis Barrias and met Maillol, Bourdelle and Rodin. In fact, the advice of the latter helped him to overcome the modernist influences of his early works. In 1907 he presented at the Salon des Artistes Français the work "Torment", a work that denotes a Rodinian influence that in his marble "Twilight" (1913, Museo de Santiago de Chile), whose plaster model he presented at the Salon de la Société Nationale in 1908, is diluted in favor of a greater clarity and serenity. The following year he presented what would be the first of his goddesses, a work that finally represented the definitive official recognition of his talent. During these years, his friendship with the dancer Isadora Duncan allowed him to create his most original and spontaneous drawings; the dynamism of dance did not contradict his search for stability, and brought him a serene light and vivacity. A tireless worker, he received several commissions for monuments, such as "Serenity on the ruins of life" (San Isidro cemetery, Madrid) and "Monument to the Catalan volunteers" (Ciutadella Park, Barcelona). With the model of the latter he won the grand prize in Paris in 1925. At the end of that same year he was appointed member of the Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid. Clarà also made heads and portraits, where he showed a condensed and lively language: "Voluntad" (1911), "Clara Stuart Merrill" (1926), "Adela" (1936), "Señorita Rodríguez Bauzà" (1941). As time went by, the sculptor gave more and more importance to light, and his sculptures became simpler, freeing himself from all sentiment, as can be seen in his first "Static", from 1926. With this new vision, in 1928 he reinterpreted "Diosa" and "Serenidad" (Montjuic garden, Barcelona), and created "Reposo" (MACBA), which won him the medal of honor at the International Exhibition of Barcelona (1929). In 1930 Clarà traveled to Greece; two years later he left his residence in Paris and settled permanently in Barcelona. In 1934 he was awarded the Damià Campeny prize for "Desnudo de muchacha". In 1936 he created one of his best works, for the synthesis of simplicity, light and serenity: "Pujanza". He is also the author of the "Monumento a los caídos" (1952) in Barcelona.

    Est: €4,500 - €4,800

    JOSEP CLARÀ I AYATS (Olot, Girona, 1878 - Barcelona, 1958). "The rhythm", 1910. Patinated bronze sculpture. Signed on the right side of the base. A copy of the same model is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art MNAC, Barcelona. Exhibitions: ""The body and matter in sculpture", European Museum of Modern Art (MEAM), Barcelona. 2019-2020. Marble foot (with chipping). Measurements: 56 x 22 x 30 cm (sculpture); 4 x 26 x 32 cm (base). "The rhythm" is a significant sculpture within the production of Josep Clarà. Two women embraced and wrapped in cloths that melt them, adopt languid dance steps. Their bodies sway to the rhythm of the fabrics, which cover and uncover their torsos, veiling their nudity while revealing it at the same time. Clará's muses show themselves without modesty, but retain an invisible halo of mystery. Their gestures are sensual and yet lack the slightest mannerism. The curves are restrained, far from excessive voluptuousness, while referring us to classical typologies, of Greek origin. Josep Clarà began his training at the School of Drawing in Olot, with Josep Berga i Boix, and later studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts in Toulouse, France.

Measurements: 82 cm. height. With this work, Josep Clarà took the postulates of Noucentisme to his personal terrain, achieving a timeless and modern image at the same time. The young woman shows herself without modesty, but preserves an invisible veil of mystery. Her gesture is sensual and yet lacks the slightest mannerism. Her curves are restrained, far from excessive voluptuousness, and at the same time they refer us to classical typologies, of Greek origin. Noucentisme, an ideological-aesthetic movement that arose in Catalonia at the beginning of the 20th century as a reaction to "fin de siècle" modernism, opposed the Eighteenth-century mentality with a desire for rigor and a classicism that looked to the past for its models to imitate. Thus, its essential values will be order, clarity and moderation. Contrary to the naturalism, psychologism and sentimentalism of the 19th century, he sought the lucid creation of a Mediterranean spirit, as opposed to fin-de-siècle decadentism. Clará brought to its peak the materialization of the longed-for Mediterranean typology. Josep Clarà began his training at the School of Drawing in Olot, with Josep Berga i Boix, and later studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts in Toulouse, France. After finishing his studies, he went to Paris in 1890, where he worked in the workshop of Louis Barrias and met Maillol, Bourdelle and Rodin.

The sculpture is not anchored to the base. Size: 65 x 20 x 13 cm; 70 x 24 x 18 x 18 cm (base). This work by Josep Clarà falls within the context of Noucentisme, an ideological-aesthetic movement that arose in Catalonia at the beginning of the 20th century as a reaction against modernism, romanticism and, in general and by extension, against all art and the "fin-de-siècle" spirit. Noucentisme was generically opposed to the mentality and spirit of the eighteenth-century with a desire for rigour and a classicism that looked to the classicist past for its ideal models to imitate. Thus, its essential values were order, clarity and moderation. Contrary to the naturalism, psychologism and sentimentalism of the 19th century, he sought the lucid creation of a Mediterranean spirit, in contrast to fin-de-siècle decadentism. Josep Clarà began his training at the Olot School of Drawing with Josep Berga i Boix, and later studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts in Toulouse, France. After completing his studies, he went to Paris in 1890, where he worked in the studio of Louis Barrias and met Maillol, Bourdelle and Rodin.

In 1907 he presented "Torment" at the Salon des Artistes Français, a work that shows a Rodinian influence which in his marble "Twilight" (1913, Museo de Santiago de Chile), whose plaster model he presented at the Salon de la Société Nationale in 1908, is diluted in favour of greater clarity and serenity. The following year he presented what was to be the first of his goddesses, a work which finally represented the definitive official recognition of his talent. During these years, his friendship with the dancer Isadora Duncan enabled him to produce his most original and spontaneous drawings; the dynamism of dance did not contradict his search for stability, and gave him a serene light and vivacity. A tireless worker, he received several commissions for monuments, such as "Serenity on the Ruins of Life" (San Isidro Cemetery, Madrid) and "Monument to the Catalan Volunteers" (Ciutadella Park, Barcelona). With the model of the latter he won the Grand Prix in Paris in 1925. At the end of the same year he was appointed a member of the San Fernando Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid. Clarà also produced heads and portraits, in which he displayed a condensed and lively language: "Voluntad" (1911), "Clara Stuart Merrill" (1926), "Adela" (1936), "Señorita Rodríguez Bauzà" (1941). As time went by, the sculptor gave more and more importance to light, and his sculptures became simpler, freeing himself of all sentiment, as can be seen in his first "Static" of 1926. With this new vision, in 1928 he reinterpreted "Diosa" and "Serenidad" (Montjuic garden, Barcelona), and created "Reposo" (MACBA), which won him the medal of honour at the Barcelona International Exhibition (1929). In 1930 Clarà travelled to Greece; two years later he left his Paris residence and settled permanently in Barcelona. In 1934 he won the Damià Campeny Prize for "Desnudo de muchacha" ("Nude of a Girl"). In 1936 he created one of his best works, for its synthesis of simplicity, light and serenity: "Pujanza". He is also the author of "Monument to the Fallen" (1952) in Barcelona.) With the nude "Pomona" (Museum of Havana) he won the Grand Prize at the 1954 Hispano-American Biennial. In 1946 he produced a "Saint Benedict" (Montserrat) which led him towards the study of the seated figure. Thus, his last works were mainly seated maternities and reclining figures. In 1969 the museum that bears his name was inaugurated in Barcelona, where a large part of his work is conserved. He is also present in the Museu Comarcal de la Garrotxa in Olot and in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, among others.
