Jaume Sans

Jaume Sans (1914–1987) was a key figure in Catalan surrealism and early industrial design. Sans was born in Barcelona and spent his childhood in Cuba – after returning to Spain, he was introduced to the magazine L Amic de les Arts, which helped revolutionize the artistic panorama of the 1920s. He attended the School of Arts and Crafts in 1932 and became a member of Amics de l Art Nou (ADLAN), a group of artists that promoted the dissemination of new arts and organised exhibitions.
