FREDERIC MARÈS DEULOVOL (Portbou, Girona, 1893 - Barcelona, 1991). "Child", ca. 1925. Bronze sculpture. Signed on the base. Size: 28 x 12 x 23 cm. Frederic Marès trained at the School of Arts and Crafts in Barcelona, later completing his studies abroad. Shortly after completing his training, he joined the teaching staff of that school, a task he did not abandon until his retirement in 1964. Marès' two main activities, that of sculptor and that of collector, frequently overshadowed his important teaching career, in which he came to share the directorship of the School of Fine Arts and the School of Applied Arts and Artistic Trades of Barcelona, and even combined them, for a brief period, with the presidency of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Marès began to work in the workshop of the modernist sculptor Eusebi Arnau, later becoming independent. He is currently represented in the museum that bears his name in Barcelona.
