Notes
Born in Spain in 1927, de Vilallonga studied at Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts in Barcelona. He also studied art in Madrid, Paris and Rome. In 1955, de Vilallonga moved to Montreal and began painting watercolours of Montreal houses. In 1958, de Vilallonga signed a contract with the owner of the prestigious Dominion Gallery in Montreal, displaying his work for the next thirty years. de Vilallonga is a painter (watercolour, oil and acrylic), muralist, print maker and sculptor. His artistic styles are symbolist, and representational, but he is most famously associated with surrealism art in Canada. While de Vilallonga currently lives and works in Spain, he continues to have his work displayed in exhibits in Quebec and worldwide.
