Fran Gonzalez (1959) - A. Gold (XXL)

Title: A. Gold (XXL) Theme: "A. Gold" (XXL) belongs to the artistic line started over 40 years ago by sculptor and gilder Fran González (Contemporary Gilding). "A. Gold" is a large-scale work, elegant and luminous. Its richness of textures, strong presence, and Expressionist aesthetics pay homage to the contemporary painters of the early 20th century and to the world of Oriental Luxury. This piece is designed to fill any interior space with magic and warmth. Fran González, an artist specializing in the use of gold leaf as a contemporary artistic medium, focuses his work on the fusion of traditional crafts with experimentation and the creation of novel exclusive techniques. His reinterpretation of gilding and the use of unconventional materials as an artistic language differentiate him within the contemporary art scene. In Fran González’s work, gold leaf and other metals (bronze, aluminum, silver, etc.) are used as an expressive and symbolic medium, beyond mere decorative value. The work is delivered with a certificate guaranteeing its authenticity, authorship, and provenance. WARNINGS: to facilitate transport and reduce shipping costs, the piece is delivered unframed and unstretched, rolled up on itself with a double protective wrap. It is also noted that the proportions and colors appearing in some photomontages (mockups) may not correspond exactly to reality and are offered only as a reference for the piece’s presence in a contemporary interior setting. Technique: Acrylic and Gold on synthetic canvas. Application of multiple layers of imitation gold leaf with acid patinas. On gilding techniques: The traditional gilding technique consists of applying very thin sheets of metal (gold, silver, imitation gold (i.e., bronze), aluminum, copper, etc.) to any artistic surface (wood, metal, ceramic, textiles, etc.). Contemporary Gilding: The techniques of contemporary gilding are unique and exclusive to Fran González and stem from the experimental philosophy of 20th-century contemporary art, developed over more than 40 years of professional career, and giving the works qualities that radiate a magical light that permeates the space where they are exhibited. Shipping: protected rolled packaging Dimensions: 152 cm x 90 cm. (XXL) Hand-signed on the reverse Fran González, by @contemporarygilding Year 2026 Fran González (Spain, 1959) is a contemporary artist who works gilding techniques from a current perspective. Under the name "Contemporary Gilding" he explores the contrast between the material and the symbolic through unique works and limited editions. González’s career began in 1982 when, after studying Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Madrid, he decided to dedicate himself full-time to Sculpture and Ceramics. He studied Art at the Madrid School of Fine Arts, the Official School of Ceramics of Madrid, and participated in various Contemporary Art Workshops at the Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid with relevant contemporary artists such as Julian Schnabel, Eva Lootz, Juan Hidalgo, and Valcárcel Medina, between 1982 and 1990. Although his development has been largely self-taught, Fran González has obtained several national and international awards and recognitions since the start of his career. Thanks to having lived in various European countries, his works are in numerous private collections in France, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Sweden, the United Kingdom and Ireland, and the USA.

Fran González in the media: (Article about FG in the European Crafts Portal "Mad´in Europe" (Excerpts)) "Fran(cisco) González is a contemporary ceramist, sculptor, painter, and gilder whose practice unites traditional craftsmanship and innovative technique. With more than four decades of experience, his work reflects an ongoing dialogue between material, process, and inspiration. His main gilding method, used about 80% of the time, is water gilding, which he chooses for its lower toxicity and sustainability, especially when working indoors... Much of Francisco’s work draws inspiration from archaeological artifacts and ancient cultures. Whether the Greeks, Etruscans, Phoenicians, Romans, Chinese, Japanese, or the rich hybrid Arab culture in Spain, his fascination lies not only in past forms and techniques but in the emotional resonance they carry. This emotional depth permeates his ceramics, gilded sculptures, and even his evolving jewelry design work. This curiosity led him to prehistoric origins and, gradually, to experimenting with new materials and forms..."
