Joan Fuster Bonnin (1870-1943, Palma (Majorca)), was a Spanish painter. == Biography == Joan Fuster Bonnin was born in Palma, Majorca in 1870. He trained at the School of Fine Arts and later in the studio-school of Ricardo Anckermann. He was one of the most active, prolific, and prominent painters from the first half of the Twentieth Century. He had the ambition to evolve his style of painting and, although it was uncommon at the time, he was devoted exclusively to the craft of painting . He was influenced by the artistic renewal that unfolded on the Island of Majorca and became interested in the innovative style of Antoni Gelabert Massot. In Bonnin's work you can see the direct influence of the Anckermann School and of the artists, Eliseu Meifrèn, Anglada Camarasa, William Degouve de Nuncques and Santiago Rusiñol. Bonnin developed his aesthetic in line with these influences, becoming a pioneer of the renewal of painting Majorcan style in the first third of the twentieth century. Joan Fuster was mainly related to Rusiñol, Degouve and Juan Mir. Between 1908 and 1909 he befriended the French painter Henri Brugnot. Received money from Eliseu Meifrèn which allowed him to stay on the island of Majorca between 1907 and 1910. In 1914 he followed the work of Anglada Camarasa and exchanged experiences in the 1930s with Guillem Bergnes. He built a personal style which was chiefly concerned by open landscapes, space and light. He was passionate about nature and the light and colors of the island of Majorca. Bonnin expressed his passion in an article in the newspaper "El Día" August 15, 1928: "It is of interest to all Majorcan people, without distinction, to defend our landscape that is our essence. We can not miss any opportunity that presents itself to extol, affirm and proclaim it as much as possible. We have to take advantage of all the opportunities we encounter, precisely because of the fame of the Majorcan landscape, days of prosperity and welfare should emanate for all Majorcans." Bonnin exhibited actively in Spain, South America and throughout Europe. Thirty solo exhibitions have been documented. These took place in Palma, Mahon, Barcelona, Bilbao and Buenos Aires. His work also appeared in exhibitions in Madrid, Barcelona, London, Marseille and Munich. His realistic impressionism style has similarities to another Majorcan painter, Miquel Forteza, which is especially apparent in the quality of his brushstrokes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joan Fuster Bonnin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
