Jose Alfonso Cuni Collage "Bullfight"
Est: $450 - $675
Jose Alfonso Cuni (Spanish, b. 1924). "Bullfight" mixed media collage, n.d. Signed at center right. A dramatic confrontation unfolds across a wide field of luminous white, where a charging black bull and mounted picador emerge in torn, layered fragments of color. In "Bullfight," Cuni constructs the scene through collage, assembling ripped passages of deep green, earthen brown, crimson, and shadowed black into a tense and immediate spectacle. The jagged edges of the paper create the illusion of motion - the bull lunges forward, the horse braces, and the rider raises his lance in a frozen instant of impact. The composition is strikingly spare. Rather than enclosing the action within an arena, Cuni allows the figures to float against an open ground, emphasizing silhouette and gesture. Size of collage: 26.75" W x 18" H (67.9 cm x 45.7 cm); of frame: 34.25" W x 25.25" H (87 cm x 64.1 cm) A distant frieze of spectators stretches horizontally across the background, rendered in muted tones that contrast with the saturated reds of the muleta and the muscular darkness of the bull. This linear procession recalls the disciplined structure of mural design, a format with which Cuni was deeply familiar. Even within the intimacy of collage, his sense of large-scale rhythm and narrative clarity remains evident. Materially, the work reflects the artist's lifelong engagement with surface and technique. The layered papers function almost like pigment strata, their tonal depth suggesting the fresco traditions he studied extensively. Each torn contour acts as both drawing and edge, defining anatomy and movement without conventional modeling. The result is both graphic and painterly - a synthesis of construction and color that heightens the drama of the bullring. Signed "Cuni" at lower right, the work captures the ritual intensity and theatricality of the corrida while distilling it into bold, modern form. The tension between violence and choreography, mass and line, tradition and abstraction gives the composition its enduring power. About the artist: Jose Alfonso Cuni was born in Barcelona in 1924 and received his formal artistic training in his native city. He studied painting with La Longa before completing his education at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts, one of Barcelona's leading art institutions. In the years that followed, from 1952 to 1956, he served as both instructor and researcher at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid, where he combined teaching with technical investigation. Cuni developed a particular command of mural painting while working in the studio of Don Ramon Stolz Viciano during the preparation and execution of the Gran Cupula del Rosario in Zaragoza. This period of close studio practice strengthened his understanding of large-scale composition and traditional wall techniques, shaping the direction of his later career. From the late 1950s through 1970, Cuni traveled widely throughout France and Italy, deepening his study of historic fresco traditions. In 1961, he was awarded a grant from the Fundacion de Marzo that enabled him to examine the ancient wall paintings of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Paestum in Naples. His long-term research into historical materials led to the reconstruction of pigment formulas that had not been used for centuries. These revived pigments were eventually produced and marketed in Europe under the Cuni family name. Cuni's growing reputation brought international recognition. In 1967 he was invited by the French government to visit Paris, and in 1970 he was elected an honorary member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Madrid. Beginning in the early 1960s, he exhibited in major international biennales, including those held in Venice, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Honolulu, Ljubljana, and Poland. Throughout his career, Cuni made significant contributions to the understanding and practice of mural painting. His technical scholarship and artistic output together secured his place within the broader narrative of twentieth-century European art. Item # 200774

Jose Alfonso Cuni Collage "Bullfight II"
Est: $700 - $1,050
Jose Alfonso Cuni (Spanish, b. 1924). "Bullfight II" mixed media collage, n.d. Signed at lower left. In "Bullfight II," Cuni reduces the spectacle of the arena to a taut exchange between mass and line. A broad, dark bull occupies the center, its form built from layered fragments of near-black and earthen tones, the torn edges suggesting muscle and tension. Opposite, the matador braces himself, his body constructed from mottled papers in cool grays and muted blues, a deep red cape unfolding beside him like a suspended wave. The lance extends in a sharp diagonal, creating a charged axis that binds man and animal in a single, inevitable trajectory. The composition unfolds horizontally across a luminous ground, allowing the figures to hover in open space rather than within a defined ring. Behind the central encounter, mounted picadors and a procession of spectators appear as attenuated silhouettes. Size of collage: 27" W x 18" H (68.6 cm x 45.7 cm); of frame: 34.25" W x 25.25" H (87 cm x 64.1 cm) Their rhythmic spacing recalls the clarity and order of mural friezes, an approach that reflects Cuni's longstanding engagement with large-scale wall painting. Even in collage, he composes with an architect's sense of balance, distributing weight and movement with careful deliberation. Materially, the work reveals the artist's fascination with surface and pigment. The layered papers act almost as chromatic strata, evoking the depth and patina of aged fresco. Torn contours serve as drawing, contouring limbs, horns, and fabric without conventional modeling. The red of the cape, saturated yet velvety, becomes the emotional fulcrum of the scene, set against the bull's dense silhouette and the airy expanse of the background. Signed "Cuni" at lower left, "Bullfight II" captures the ritualized drama of the corrida while translating it into a modern visual language. Through collage, Cuni distills the pageantry, violence, and choreography of the event into a spare and commanding composition, where gesture and material carry the full force of the spectacle. About the artist: Jose Alfonso Cuni was born in Barcelona in 1924 and received his formal artistic training in his native city. He studied painting with La Longa before completing his education at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts, one of Barcelona's leading art institutions.

Jose Alfonso Cuni (Spanish, b. 1924). "Bullfight" mixed media collage, n.d. Signed at center right. A dramatic confrontation unfolds across a wide field of luminous white, where a charging black bull and mounted picador emerge in torn, layered fragments of color. In "Bullfight," Cuni constructs the scene through collage, assembling ripped passages of deep green, earthen brown, crimson, and shadowed black into a tense and immediate spectacle. The jagged edges of the paper create the illusion of motion - the bull lunges forward, the horse braces, and the rider raises his lance in a frozen instant of impact. The composition is strikingly spare. Rather than enclosing the action within an arena, Cuni allows the figures to float against an open ground, emphasizing silhouette and gesture. Size of collage: 26.75" W x 18" H (67.9 cm x 45.7 cm); of frame: 34.25" W x 25.25" H (87 cm x 64.1 cm) A distant frieze of spectators stretches horizontally across the background, rendered in muted tones that contrast with the saturated reds of the muleta and the muscular darkness of the bull. This linear procession recalls the disciplined structure of mural design, a format with which Cuni was deeply familiar. Even within the intimacy of collage, his sense of large-scale rhythm and narrative clarity remains evident. Materially, the work reflects the artist's lifelong engagement with surface and technique. The layered papers function almost like pigment strata, their tonal depth suggesting the fresco traditions he studied extensively. Each torn contour acts as both drawing and edge, defining anatomy and movement without conventional modeling. The result is both graphic and painterly - a synthesis of construction and color that heightens the drama of the bullring. Signed "Cuni" at lower right, the work captures the ritual intensity and theatricality of the corrida while distilling it into bold, modern form. The tension between violence and choreography, mass and line, tradition and abstraction gives the composition its enduring power. About the artist: Jose Alfonso Cuni was born in Barcelona in 1924 and received his formal artistic training in his native city. He studied painting with La Longa before completing his education at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts, one of Barcelona's leading art institutions. In the years that followed, from 1952 to 1956, he served as both instructor and researcher at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid, where he combined teaching with technical investigation. Cuni developed a particular command of mural painting while working in the studio of Don Ramon Stolz Viciano during the preparation and execution of the Gran Cupula del Rosario in Zaragoza. This period of close studio practice strengthened his understanding of large-scale composition and traditional wall techniques, shaping the direction of his later career. From the late 1950s through 1970, Cuni traveled widely throughout France and Italy, deepening his study of historic fresco traditions. In 1961, he was awarded a grant from the Fundacion de Marzo that enabled him to examine the ancient wall paintings of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Paestum in Naples. His long-term research into historical materials led to the reconstruction of pigment formulas that had not been used for centuries. These revived pigments were eventually produced and marketed in Europe under the Cuni family name. Cuni's growing reputation brought international recognition. In 1967 he was invited by the French government to visit Paris, and in 1970 he was elected an honorary member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Madrid. Beginning in the early 1960s, he exhibited in major international biennales, including those held in Venice, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Honolulu, Ljubljana, and Poland. Throughout his career, Cuni made significant contributions to the understanding and practice of mural painting. His technical scholarship and artistic output together secured his place within the broader narrative of twentieth-century European art.

Jose Alfonso Cuni Collage "Bullfight II"
Est: $800 - $1,200
Jose Alfonso Cuni (Spanish, b. 1924). "Bullfight II" mixed media collage, n.d. Signed at lower left. In "Bullfight II," Cuni reduces the spectacle of the arena to a taut exchange between mass and line. A broad, dark bull occupies the center, its form built from layered fragments of near-black and earthen tones, the torn edges suggesting muscle and tension. Opposite, the matador braces himself, his body constructed from mottled papers in cool grays and muted blues, a deep red cape unfolding beside him like a suspended wave. The lance extends in a sharp diagonal, creating a charged axis that binds man and animal in a single, inevitable trajectory. The composition unfolds horizontally across a luminous ground, allowing the figures to hover in open space rather than within a defined ring. Behind the central encounter, mounted picadors and a procession of spectators appear as attenuated silhouettes. Size of collage: 27" W x 18" H (68.6 cm x 45.7 cm); of frame: 34.25" W x 25.25" H (87 cm x 64.1 cm) Their rhythmic spacing recalls the clarity and order of mural friezes, an approach that reflects Cuni's longstanding engagement with large-scale wall painting. Even in collage, he composes with an architect's sense of balance, distributing weight and movement with careful deliberation. Materially, the work reveals the artist's fascination with surface and pigment. The layered papers act almost as chromatic strata, evoking the depth and patina of aged fresco. Torn contours serve as drawing, contouring limbs, horns, and fabric without conventional modeling. The red of the cape, saturated yet velvety, becomes the emotional fulcrum of the scene, set against the bull's dense silhouette and the airy expanse of the background. Signed "Cuni" at lower left, "Bullfight II" captures the ritualized drama of the corrida while translating it into a modern visual language. Through collage, Cuni distills the pageantry, violence, and choreography of the event into a spare and commanding composition, where gesture and material carry the full force of the spectacle.

JOSÉ ALFONSO CUNÍ (Montmeló, Barcelona, 1924-2021). "Notre Dame". Engraving, Artist's proof. Signed and justified in the lower margin. Measurements: 48 x 63 cm; 54 x 70 cm (frame). José Alfonso Cuní began his artistic training very young, attending local academies and participating in competitions while studying. Economic limitations forced him to leave his studies after high school and work in a printing press, although between 1943 and 1947 he was able to continue his training in evening classes at the Llotja School in Barcelona, which finally opened the doors to Fine Arts. In 1951 he entered the School of Fine Arts in Madrid, where he trained with Ramon Stolz and collaborated in important restoration works, such as Goya's mural paintings in San Antonio de la Florida or the dome of the Pilar in Zaragoza. Throughout his career he developed an intense activity as a muralist and also explored engraving and sculpture, fields in which he won awards such as the Grand Prize for Engraving in the National Plastic Arts Competition (1962), as well as other distinctions such as the third medal in the 1964 National Exhibition and the first in 1966. His exhibition career includes numerous national and international exhibitions, among them the retrospective at the Dirección General de Bellas Artes de Madrid (1967), the VII Biennial of Tokyo (1970), the Portsmouth Arts Festival (1972), the Cid Gallery in Madrid (1974), the Museum of Modern Art in Kobe (1979) and the Arvil Gallery in Mexico (1981).
