The magic of the painter in action: Josep Domènech i Sánchez gives a live demonstration during Art Week 2025

As part of Art Week 2025, Sala Rusiñol took part with a very special activity that allowed visitors to discover art from a unique perspective. On Thursday, December 4, artist Josep Domènech i Sánchez presented “The Magic of the Painter in Action,” a live painting demonstration that attracted great interest from the audience.

During the event, attendees had the opportunity to observe up close the creative process of an artist with a truly distinctive technique. Josep Domènech shared his personal approach to painting as he created a work before the audience, revealing every gesture, every decision, and every layer of color that shapes his artistic universe.

His working method, based on a subtle blend of colors, the use of soft blending techniques, and the delicate interplay of light and shadow, captivated those in attendance. This process gives his works a deeply reflective and almost magical quality, enhanced by his ability to capture light and transform everyday reality into images filled with emotion and sensitivity.

Beyond the technical demonstration, the session became a warm and interactive experience. Visitors had the opportunity to speak with the artist, ask questions, and gain insight into a highly personal creative process that usually remains hidden behind each finished painting.

The event was very well received by the public, who enjoyed an enriching and inspiring experience, reinforcing the mission of Art Week to bring artistic creation closer to both art lovers and the general public.

Below, we are pleased to share a video of this live demonstration, in which Josep Domènech i Sánchez revealed the magic behind each of his works.
