Emilio Sujar

Emilio is a versatile artist, also interested in music and psychology. His works belong to the symbolic and dream world, product of a deep introspection that has a lot of catharsis for the author. Long meditated works, in some cases, of fast execution, full of freshness, but full of atmosphere, using gouache to produce a delicate sfumato. They seem narrated for filmic language, by way of preparatory studies, flashes born of personal experiences, the fruit of his reveries, reflections ... In other cases, autobiographical works, meditations on himself, on the many and complex Emilios and his artist personality, Disquisitions about Art, about life ... All of them with a soundtrack, with an "encrypted" story and an invitation to unravel them.

In the years that followed I continued to work in a self-taught way, although helped by artists such as José Duarte, a founding member of the so-called Team 57 and the Estampa collective, who contributed to the revolution of the cultural landscape in the last years of the 50s and early years of the 60s in my country and I always admired.
Also another artist from my city, Miguel del Moral, always advised me and audited in the most generous way during this time.
In the first 70 I was a listener (unofficial student) at the University of Fine Arts in Barcelona, where I met Miguel Ángel Gómez Martín who introduced me to the world of illustration for publishers, and with whom I made some joint exhibitions, to ...
