Biography
Pere Santilari was born in Badalona in 1959 and trained at the Barcelona University Fine Arts Faculty. Together with his twin brother, Josep, he is one of the leading exponents of new Catalan realism. Pere Santilari’s work reveals great technical precision and a realism linked to the contemporary scene, but his roots and paradigms lie in such classical art-history subjects as townscapes and still-life.
His work has been on view in numerous solo and collective exhibitions in Spain (Barcelona, Madrid, Granada, Saragossa, Valencia) and abroad (Amsterdam, Milan, London, Paris, Zurich, New York, etc.)
