Valencian artist Manolo Boix mourned by IVAM

The Museu de Belles Arts de València has mourned artist Manolo Boix, who lived from 1942 to 2026.

The Ajuntament de Xàtiva has expressed deep regret over the death of Manolo Boix. The statement described Boix as an essential figure in contemporary Valencian art.

The museum preserves eight works by Manuel Boix in its collection. In 1995, IVAM dedicated an exhibition to Boix alongside Artur Heras and Rafael Armengol.

One hundred and fifty years later, Julio González still occupies an essential place in the history of contemporary sculpture.
