Interests and Personality
| Biography | José García y Más was born in 1945 in Santa Cruz de la Palma on the Canary Islands, Spain. In 1970 he exchanged the unloved Franco regime for the young German democracy and finally moved to Berlin, where he took a degree in Engineering. Since 1980, he has pursued an independent career as an artist, undertaking various study
trips to Sweden, England, Italy, and Spain. He and his wife now live and work on the Island of Usedom in the Baltic Sea. |
| Interests | Although global policy plays a very important part in his world view, García y Más is not a political painter in any narrow sense. His pictures deal wit contemporary issues, often in a satirical mode, and need to be ‘read’ with insight. His painting “The Lion Tamers” (1985) – a striking example of his political expression - now hangs in the permanent exhibition “A Walk Through Two Thousand Years of German History” in the Deutsches Historisches Museum (German Historical Museum) in Berlin. |
