Solano, Susana

Susana Solano is a Spanish sculptor, born in Barcelona in 1946. She is known for her large-scale sculptures, often made of sheet metal and wire mesh. Solano studied at the Real acadèmia Catalana de bellas artes de San Jorge. She began her artistic career as a painter, but transitioned to sculpture in the late 1970s. Solano's sculptures are influenced by her childhood memories in Barcelona. Her early sculptures were made of hanging canvas, but she later shifted to a more minimalist and geometric style, using sheet iron as her primary medium. She also began incorporating additional materials such as glass and wire mesh in her sculptures. In addition to her sculptures, Solano has made works on paper throughout her career. Solano's work has been exhibited extensively in Spain, Europe, and the United States. Her first retrospective was organized by the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in 1993. She is represented in the United States by Jack Shainman Gallery in New York City. Solano has received numerous awards and honors, including representing Spain in the 43rd Venice Biennale in 1988 and receiving Spain's National Award for Plastic Arts the same year.
