Kieff Antonio Grediaga's artistic training began in cabinetmaking, working with his father in the restoration of religious furniture, an apprenticeship that had a decisive influence on his later sculptural practice. In 1968 he held his first exhibition at the Moos Gallery in Montreal, where the sale of all the works exhibited consolidated his early international projection.
Since then, his work has been shown in galleries and fairs in Canada, the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Israel and several European countries. Among his recent projects is El Canto del Hierro (Cádiz, 2022), an exhibition linked to Manuel de Falla's Siete canciones populares españolas (Seven Popular Spanish Songs). In the field of public art, the monumental sculpture The Turning Point, installed in 1980 in Columbus Circle, New York, stands out.
His work is represented in institutional collections of international relevance and covers a wide variety of formats and materials, from small bronzes to monumental structures in iron, wood or marble. Currently, the Kieff Antonio Grediaga Foundation, based in Tendilla (Guadalajara), aims to preserve his legacy and train new generations of artists.
