Rafael Canogar (born 1935, Toledo, Spain) is a renowned Spanish painter, sculptor, and one of the founding members of the El Paso Group, an avant-garde movement that revitalized Spanish art in the 1950s and 60s. Canogar is known for his abstract and figurative work, blending expressive gestures with a deep engagement with the social and political contexts of his time. His art evolved from informalism and abstract expressionism to a more figurative style, often addressing themes of oppression, human struggle, and societal critique. Canogar’s works are celebrated for their dynamic textures, bold compositions, and evocative narratives, making him a key figure in contemporary Spanish art. His pieces are featured in major museums and collections worldwide, including the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid and the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
