Eduard Arranz-Bravo

He painted for sixty-five years, the last ten of them under the skylight of his Vallvidrera studio. Successió Arranz-Bravo, S.L. is the company of his two sons: it administers the legacy, authenticates, authorises reproductions, handles loans and maintains the catalogue of the complete work.

The whole catalogue

Detail of the studio skylight seen from below: the quadrangular glass opening set between the four sloping concrete planes, and a shaft of light sliding down the wall.

The studio as a working space

The Vallvidrera studio — completed in 2013 by Garcés · De Seta · Bonet — has no windows: all the light comes through a skylight in the roof. The work of the last ten years was painted in the room below, and today it is where the Estate documents, studies and classifies the complete work.

The Espai Arranz-Bravo logo takes the shape of this opening.
