Antoni Abad

Antoni Abad i Roses (born 1956 in Lleida) is a Spanish artist.

He began his career as a sculptor, and evolved over time towards video art and later in net.art and other forms of new media.

[2][3][4] Abad's artistic training began with the teachings of his father, followed by a degree in Art History from the University of Barcelona (1979), and studies of engraving in Cuenca, London and Perugia.

His work has evolved away from a traditional sculptural practice[5][6] to the use of new technologies, and in particular the creation of community-based artworks using cell phones.

Antoni Abad's expresses the desire to formal experimentation around the concepts of space and time, always present in his work, not exempt lately of certain ironic and critical aspects.
