José María Fibla Foix (1942) was born in Benicarló, Castellón, Spain. From an early age, he showed a passion for the arts, which led him to pursue formal training under esteemed teachers such as Don Juan García Calvo, Don Manuel García Martín, and Don Francisco Gutiérrez Cossío. These influential mentors helped shape his technical skills and artistic vision, which would later define his distinctive style.
His artistic career began in the mid-1960s, and he quickly made a name for himself in Spain and abroad. His early works were shaped by various artistic movements, yet he developed a unique approach that combined elements of abstraction and figuration. Throughout his career, Fibla Foix held numerous solo exhibitions in prominent galleries across Spain, including Madrid, Barcelona, and Castellón, as well as in international locations like Tangier and Southampton. His art evolved over the years, marked by an exploration of color, texture, and form, as he sought to express both his personal vision and his interpretation of the world around him.
José María Fibla Foix’s work has been featured in various group exhibitions, with notable shows in galleries across Spain, such as the Museo de Bellas Artes in Castellón and the Municipal Cultural Centre in Castellón. He also participated in international exhibitions in cities such as Tokyo, Cordoba, and Riyadh. His works have been part of both collective and solo shows, with an emphasis on capturing the relationship between space, form, and light. Throughout his career, he earned recognition for his innovative approach, and his pieces are now housed in several public and private collections. Notable exhibitions include his shows at the Ramón Durán Gallery in Madrid and the Terra Gallery in Castellón, along with his participation in the prestigious “Itinerante’75” exhibition, which toured major German cities.
