Alicia Grau Pérez-Agustín

Alicia Grau Pérez-Agustín (born 1955) is a Spanish impressionist painter who specializes in portraits of children and young women. Born in Barcelona, she divides her working time between her hometown and Florence, Italy.

Her style has been defined by art critics for her excellent drawing technique, a measured use of pigments – through which the compact solidity of her textures causes her canvases take on a palpable sensation of volume – and the priming, the scraping and the thick layers of paints that she uses.

Like realist painter Antonio López García, Alicia Grau Pérez-Agustín has succeeded in creating an artistic trend among the artists of her generation and her work is now spread throughout the world.

During more than twenty years, she has held a great number of personal exhibitions in most European and US capitals, and her works are today included in private and public art collections.
