By Hand: OUTSKIRTS, GARDENS, AND MUD is a selection of prints, acrylics, and watercolors, accompanied by porcelain and ceramic sculptures, produced in recent years by Maria Rubert. A collection of landscapes built from memories of fragments of the city that the artist has discovered, studied, imagined, and fixed, layer by layer, on paper and formwork boards. These works transport us to cities, places, and small domestic gardens, revealing and making visible the hidden beauty and atmosphere captured from a distance with great sensitivity.
Maria Rubert de Ventós (Barcelona, 1956)
She holds a degree in architecture from the Technical School of Architecture of Barcelona (ETSAB, 1981) and a doctorate from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC, 1993). She was the first woman to achieve the rank of full professor of Urban Planning in Spain. She is a professor of Urban Planning at ETSAB, in the Landscape Master’s program at UPC, and a guest professor at renowned international architecture schools.
She has carried out projects such as the expansion of the Spanish Congress of Deputies in Madrid, the master plan and urbanization project of the Olympic area of La Diagonal, the planning of the Besòs-Mar area, and the 22@ Perú-Pere IV plan. She is the author of several articles and publications including Barcelona sin GPS (Icaria, 2021), La ciudad no es una hoja en blanco: hechos del urbanismo (Ediciones ARQ, 2000), Metro, galaxias metropolitanas (Edicions UPC, 2001) co-authored with Josep Parcerisa Bundo, and Plazas porticadas en Cataluña (Edicions UPC, 2006).
