Paloma Navares

Paloma Navares (born 1947) is an interdisciplinary Spanish artist who combines sculpture, photography, video and audio in her installations.

[1] Recurring themes in her work are the feminine condition, the historical representation of women through art, the critical analysis of the canon, madness, beauty and aging.

[citation needed] In 1985-1986 she created Seravan; A Song for a Fallen Tree and Origin and Moonlit Nights which were mainly exhibited in art centers and museums in Europe.

In 2018 Paloma Navares was awarded the MAV Price (Women in the Visual Arts) recognizing her contributions in a long career.

[4] In 2024, the ENAIRE Foundation awarded her with the Trayectoria Prize, “for a life dedicated to artistic creation, exploring the limits of a theme that, in a perceptive way at the beginning and decisively later, becomes a mantra without seeking it: the feminine universe.” The ENAIRE Foundation also organized a solo retrospective exhibition of her work at the Royal Botanical Garden of Madrid.
