In this work Francesc Todó presents a landscape of serene and evocative character, where some small rural constructions are arranged in an open environment populated with trees and vegetation.
With this refined language, Todó transforms the landscape into a poetic and contemplative image, closer to the emotional evocation than to the literal description of the place.
Todó trained at the La Lonja School, and in 1946 he made his individual debut at the Vinçon Gallery. He participated in the Salones de Octubre and the Salones de Mayo in Barcelona, and in 1952 he won the Rosa Vera engraving prize. In 1969 he was appointed professor of painting at the Universidad de los Andes in Bogota, and during these years he held exhibitions in Cali and Mexico City. In 2001 he received the Sant Jordi Cross from the Generalitat de Catalunya, in recognition of his artistic career.
Francesc Todó is currently represented at MACBA.
