José Porta Missé (* 1927 in Barcelona) is a Spanish painter. Missé lives in Barcelona.
Porta Missé had his first contact with painting by his father, portrait painter José Porta Galobart. Otherwise, he learned painting as an autodidact.
After the death of his father in 1958 he moved to Mallorca and lived in Cala Major. From this time, surrealism was his style. Pictures emerged, thoughtfully from the underwater world, in strong green and blue tones.
In 1964 he left Mallorca and moved his food point to Madrid. More to the animal world, he painted a butterfly cycle. He moved unstintably to Paris and to London in the late 1960s. Again, he changed his style and watched more people, with the result that ironically overcrowded and caricature portraits emerged. He continued to move to Sitges in 1971.
A new period of creativity emerged in 1977 after the exhibition from Constructivism to Concrete Art in Berlin. This refers to constructivism and reduction to simple geometrical forms, with the human being at the center. In 1978 he returned to Barcelona.
In 1994 he created three works with more than two square meters. He devoted her to war, fire and plague and named her Rwanda, pollution and AIDS. Weblinks Edit sourcetext
