JULIO GONZÁLEZ PELLICER (Barcelona, 1876 - Arcueil, France, 1942). - "Le bain", 1920.
Est: €4,500 - €5,000
JULIO GONZÁLEZ PELLICER (Barcelona, 1876 - Arcueil, France, 1942). "Le bain", 1920. Pastel and charcoal on paper. Work certified on the back by Roberta González, daughter of the artist. Size: 24 x 16 cm; 42 x 34 cm (frame). Julio González is not only considered an important figure in the artistic panorama of the 20th century for his iron sculptures, but also for his excellent, although less known, facet as a draughtsman. González's drawings are inspired by the work of Pablo Picasso due to the relationship he had with the painter from Malaga, a collaboration that began in 1928 and culminated in the execution in wrought bronze of the sculpture "Femme au jardin". Thanks to his drawings it is possible to delve into the exciting world of González, with female figures captured with enormous skill and delicacy, or with the sketches prior to his iron sculptures, which demonstrate his exceptional and unlimited artistic capacity. Julio González was born into a family of goldsmiths, learning the trade as a child. He later studied Fine Arts at La Lonja in Barcelona. In 1900 he went with his family to Paris, where he frequented the artistic circles and was in contact with Picasso, Gargallo and Brancusi, among others. Around 1910 he began to work on embossed metal masks in a style marked by naturalistic and symbolist features and by a new conception of the human figure, with synthesised volumes and lines. During these years González began to take part in the Parisian salons, particularly the Autumn Salon, the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon of the National Society of Fine Arts. In 1920 he opened his own forge and two years later made his individual debut at the Povolovsky gallery in Paris. At the end of the 1920s he began to develop his first sculptures in wrought iron, a material that until then had been considered merely decorative. During the 1930s his work became more abstract and the first spatial constructions appeared. After a long list of participations in solo and group exhibitions such as the Spanish Art exhibition at the Jeu de Paume Museum (1936) and the Spanish Pavilion at the Universal Exhibition in Paris (1937), at the outbreak of the Second World War his work, as a result of the shortage of iron, focused on a new material, plaster, and on drawings with war themes. González is represented at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the IVAM in Valencia and the MoMA in New York, among many others.

Est: €5,000 - €6,000
JULIO GONZÁLEZ PELLICER (Barcelona, 1876 - Arcueil, France, 1942). "Maternity black and pink", 1929. Watercolor, pencil, Indian ink, ink wash and pencil strokes on paper. Work reproduced in the catalog dedicated to Julio González Pellicer; GILBERT, J., Julio González, catalog raisonné of drawings, Vol III. Paris. 1975. p. 52. Damage to the frame. Measurements: 27.2 x 19.9 cm; 51 x 49 cm (frame). Provenance: Studio of the artist in Paris. Gallery of France, Paris. Private collection, Switzerland. Considered the father of the sculpture in iron, Julio González is a key artist for the vanguard of the 20th century. He was born into a family of goldsmiths, learning the trade in modernist Barcelona. Later he studied Fine Arts at La Lonja in Barcelona. In 1900 he went to Paris, where he frequented the artistic environments and maintained contact with Picasso, Gargallo and Brancusi, among others, which would mark a before and after in his language. There he learned the technique of autogenous welding, key to his research with the expressiveness of iron. Around 1910 he began to work with embossed metal masks, with a style marked by naturalistic and symbolist features, and a new conception of the human figure, with synthesized volumes and lines. During these years, Gonzalez began to participate in the Parisian salons. In 1920 he opened his own forge workshop, and two years later he made his debut at the Povolovsky Gallery. During these years he experimented with the two-dimensionality of the plane, and continued in this line of exploration of volume until 1928, when he was asked to collaborate in the realization of the funerary monument of his friend Apollinaire, characterized by its transparent forms and its emptying. With Picasso, he puts his previous experiments into practice for the first time and proves their viability, given the perfect harmony between them and Picasso's synthetic capacity for drawing. Thus, the delicate small-format irons are finished, and his forms will be increasingly imposing and complex, pushing the artist internationally. Thus, at the end of the twenties he began his first sculptures in wrought iron. During the thirties his work became more abstract, and the first spatial constructions appeared. He prioritizes "the marriage between matter and space" and moves away from traditional symmetrical compositions, through what he himself called "drawing in space". These are improvised pieces, built directly with the wrought iron rod, which build schematic, abstract images of great formal complexity. In parallel, he will work with iron plate, creating a series of works that scholars have related to cubism. After a long list of participations in solo and group exhibitions such as Spanish Art at the Jeu de Paume Museum (1936) or the Universal Exhibition in Paris (1937), his work, as a result of the shortage of iron, focuses on a new material, gypsum, and on drawings with war themes. On the other hand, in 1937 he had achieved the culmination of his sculptural work in iron with "La Montserrat" and "Mujer ante el espejo". A key artist to understand the Spanish avant-garde, his work has been vindicated by important exhibitions such as the retrospective exhibition dedicated to him in 2009 at the MNCARS in Madrid. On the other hand, Gonzalez is represented in the most important contemporary art collections in the world, including the Georges Pompidou Center in Paris, the Reina Sofia in Madrid, the IVAM in Valencia and the MoMA in New York, among many others.

JULIO GONZÁLEZ PELLICER (Barcelona, 1876 - Arcueil, France, 1942). "La cueillette (the harvest)", ca. 1920. Pastel on paper. Certified on the back by Roberta González, daughter of the artist.
Est: €3,000 - €3,500
JULIO GONZÁLEZ PELLICER (Barcelona, 1876 - Arcueil, France, 1942). "La cueillette (the harvest)", ca. 1920. Pastel on paper. Certified on the back by Roberta González, daughter of the artist. With label of the Artur Ramon Gallery on the back. Size: 33 x 30 cm; 58 x 56 cm (frame). Julio González was an excellent draughtsman. His female figures, captured with enormous skill and delicacy, are inspired by those of the early Picasso, due to the relationship that both painters had in 1928, which culminated in the bronze sculpture "Femme au jardin" (1930-32). Julio González was born into a family of goldsmiths, learning the trade as a child. Later he studied Fine Arts at La Lonja in Barcelona. In 1900 he went with his family to Paris, where he frequented the artistic circles and was in contact with Picasso, Gargallo and Brancusi, among others. Around 1910 he began to work on embossed metal masks, with a style marked by naturalistic and symbolist features and a new conception of the human figure, with synthesised volumes and lines. During these years González began to take part in the Parisian salons, particularly the Autumn Salon, the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon of the National Society of Fine Arts. In 1920 he opened his own forge and two years later made his individual debut at the Povolovsky gallery in Paris. At the end of the 1920s he began to develop his first sculptures in wrought iron, a material that until then had been considered merely decorative. During the 1930s his work became more abstract and the first spatial constructions appeared. After a long list of participations in solo and group exhibitions such as the Spanish Art exhibition at the Jeu de Paume Museum (1936) and the Spanish Pavilion at the Universal Exhibition in Paris (1937), at the outbreak of the Second World War his work, as a result of the shortage of iron, focused on a new material, plaster, and on drawings with war themes. González is represented at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the IVAM in Valencia and the MoMA in New York, among many others.
