He studied at the Massana School and the San Jorge School of Fine Arts. At the beginning he teamed up with Eduard Arranz Bravo, Rafael Bartolozzi and Gerard Sala, with whom he became known in an exhibition in 1964. In 1969 he separated from the group, and went into conceptual art, within which he carried out some actions such as Llimós en marcha (1972). He returned to painting after commissioning a mural for the March family at their Mallorcan residence in Cala Ratjada. Between 1975 and 1983 he lived in New York, and between 1987 and 1988 in Miami; he currently lives in Barcelona. In 1993 a retrospective exhibition of his work was held in Hospitalet de Llobregat, and the following year he was awarded the National Prize of Plastic Arts of the Generalitat de Catalunya. In 1996 he made the sculpture Marc, one of his most famous works, for the Atlanta Olympic Games. It was dedicated to his son, who had died the previous year and was named after him; the following year a copy of this work was placed in the Olympic Village in Barcelona. His paintings, which are brightly colored, usually focus on the human figure, represented in an expressionist style.
