Amancio Gonzalez was born in Villahibere (Leon) in 1965 and became a self-taught artist in the arts.
Creative path:
He worked with artist Leon Alejandro Vargas and soon became fascinated with wood carvings, giving human appearance to the large trunks of trees.
The sculptor has also worked with iron and bronze, and is currently working with stone, while continuing his task of turning the busts of prominent figures of Leon literature into bronze.
Amancio Gonzalez’s sculptures retain a strong commitment to expressive modernity and respect for classical artists whose careers have long been associated with the artist, and which harmonize the appearance and content, volume and emptiness, form and matter. His metaphysical immobility, devoid of irony and playfulness for the experienced spectator, moves under a multitude of tactile sensations that include shadows and almost primitive emptiness, and where he draws energy and tension between the invisible center of the play and the dynamic impulses. Over the last two decades, this tireless Spanish sculptor has created innovative works in public places around the world.
