Message of the exhibition: “The National Museum is proposed with this exhibition to recover the figure of this painter and illustrator, little known but of amazing personality and trajectory, born in Badalona in 1876. His first steps in the artistic world They are linked to the 4 cats, the crucial epicenter of Catalan modernism. In this cenacle the artist would meet the oldest promoters of modernity and share the yearnings of the emerging generation that would happen to them. It then relates to Picasso, who between 1899 and 1900 makes three portraits of Torent coal, and also with Carles Casagemas, Joaquim Mir and Hermen Anglada Camarasa. ” “In 1922, Torent acquired a defense tower in Ibiza, the Torre d’en Rovira, located in the town of Sant Josep. In this place he would install his summer residence and have a museum of archeological vestiges and a whimsical monumental park that would discover the most curious and picturesque side of the artist. ” This article on the cultural agenda has been updated on June 26, 2024, so in anticipation of possible subsequent modifications, we recommend contrast the information with which it appears published on the website of the National Art Museum of Catalonia.
