Overview
Xavier Mascaró: where timeless legends meet modern sculpture This monograph devoted to Xavier Mascaró (1965) presents the work of this Spanish artist fascinated by myths and legends. He draws on archaic iconography – heads, masks, boats, human and animal forms – to give substance to the contradictions of the human soul. His work resonates with the heritage of pre-Columbian art, which he reinvents with power and poetry. Xavier Mascaró sublimates iron, an ancestral material to which he breathes new energy. Since 2004, he has extended his work to glass, wood, pewter, stone and ceramics. Over the last ten years, his installations of monumental works of art have become emblematic and are regularly exhibited in public spaces and galleries around the world, from the Santo Domingo convent in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, to the Warehouse421 in Abu Dhabi, and even the Paseo del Prado in Madrid and the Palais Royal in Paris. His work has also been the subject of more than 50 solo exhibitions in galleries in New York, Mexico City, Caracas, Buenos Aires, Paris, London, Düsseldorf, Beirut and Dubai. He has taken part in more than 150 group exhibitions as well.
