Unidad Editorial

I've always sought to cover the great themes using two levels: the communicator and scholar. I want my texts to show the passion of a particular artist to an uninitiated reader, yet remain tasty and puzzling to a connoisseur.So, on the 400th anniversary of Klimt I traveled to Vienna, toured all the places that marked the painter's biography, interviewed experts and wrote about his most important achievements; but also inquired into the history of his lost and repudiated masterpieces.- I have applied that procedure to all my stories, whether about Picasso, Dalí, Surrealism, Robert Crumb, August Strindber, Damien Hirst, the Jazz, The Vanguards, the relations between Spain and Japan in the seventeenth century or the great moments in the history of journalism.- I like finding the hidden connections between different areas of creation, so I made a report (pioneer at the time) on the influence of the great architects, painters and sculptors in video game creators.- I have conducted interviews with national and international cultural figures. Historians such as Ricardo Garcia Carcel or Hugh Thomas and museum directors as Manuel Borja- Villel.- I also conducted interviews with young artists and creators with great potential embodied in the Spanish contemporary art, whether foreign, as Gilbert & George, or spanish as Juan Francisco Casas, Ixone Sadaba, Eugenio Merino, Amaya Hernández, Elena García...- For years, I have been responsible for coordinating the schedule of art exhibitions. I have selected the most important and wrote about them.- I coordinated the book section of both publications. I have commissioned and written countless reviews.

As head of the Comic section of Rolling Stone Magazine (Spain's edition), in addition to writing reviews of new releases, I conducted interviews with great spanish authors, as Paco Roca, Santiago Valenzuela and Alfonso Azpiri. Also, I wrote scoop reports on international releases in Spain ("Genesis" by Robert Crumb) and interviewed important international figures like Peter Bagge and Jim Woodring.
