Luis Feito

Luis Feito (Madrid, 1929 - 2021) was a key Spanish painter within informalism and Spanish abstraction. A founding member of the group El Paso (1957-1960), he developed a style marked by expressive gesture, an intense use of black, and texture, exploring the relationship between matter and pictorial space.

His work, in painting as well as printmaking and graphic art, has been exhibited in national and international museums, including the Museo Reina Sofía (Madrid), the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, and MACBA (Barcelona). He is recognized for his contribution to the renewal of Spanish visual language in the second half of the 20th century and for the poetic force of his abstraction.
