Juan Muñoz (June 16, 1953- August 28, 2001) was a Spanish sculptor, working primarily in paper maché, resin and bronze.He was a self-described "storyteller". He grew up under the rule of Franco in Spain. He told stories, very conceptual stories, on the radio as well as through his sculptures. I really like the eery oddballness in his work. The fact that he didn't use any real color whatsoever adds to that quality. Repetition, I believe does his work a lot of justice. Some may even find it disturbing, but I love it.
