Eclectic painter, belonging to the Catalan school, Joan M. Rabat i Juncadella works both figuration, through an avant-garde language inherited from surrealism and the new classicist figuration of the thirties, and a volumetric abstraction that plays with planes, the anti-classical line and the juxtaposition of colors to suggest impossible spaces. He was awarded in 2009 with a platinum medal at the Festa de Sant Jordi at the CaixaForum in Barcelona, and is currently represented in several private collections.
