JOAN BROSSA. Creative book

A unique creative experience based on the work of the visual poet Joan Brossa!

"Among the letters of the alphabet there is still much to discover." Brossa, 1993

Have you ever thought that an A could be the head of an ox, a D a mailbox or an S a winding road? The poet Joan Brossa teaches us, with his visual poems, to see and create a new world from the letters of the alphabet.

This creative book is composed of two artbooks:

-The first includes a selection of JOAN BROSSA's best visual poems, reproduced in the highest quality.

-The second is an alphabet for you to let your imagination and creativity fly from each of its letters.

This artbook is for...

...lovers of Joan Brossa's work, will find 29 magnificent visual poems by the artist.

...children from 6 years of age, since this is when they begin to discover the wonderful world of letters, and it is useful for them to experiment with them and rediscover them in a new and creative way.

...children from 10 years old, teenagers and older, as it shows us the incredible visual and poetic world of multiple meanings, double meanings and the richness hidden behind every letter and every word.

... all those who think they are not creative and are not capable of creating. 

Why I created it...

Joan Brossa is an artist of reference for me and my Fine Arts classmates with whom we created a collective called "L'Arbre, el Porc i la Flor". From 1995 to 2001 we edited story-objects and made artistic installations that included play and words as means of expression.

The year 2018 marked the centenary of Brossa's birth. To celebrate it and as a tribute, I created a series of creative objects -Abrossadari(o), Aplec and Pillut Brossa- in collaboration with Fundació Joan Brossa.
