  FRANCISCO LOZANO SANCHÍS, (Antella, Valencia, 1912 - Valencia, 2000). "Landscape", 1983. Oil on panel. Signed and dated in the lower left corner. Measurements: 22 x 23 cm, 32 x 34 (frame). Painter, teacher and member of the Royal Academies of Fine Arts of San Fernando and San Carlos, Francisco Lozano was interested in painting since his youth, and with sixteen years began his training at the Academy of San Carlos in Valencia. Later he continued his studies at the Residencia de Pintores de La Alhambra, and after the civil war he began to make a name for himself. His career was consolidated in the forties, when he began to exhibit regularly in Madrid and other cities. In the capital he was well received by Eugenio d'Ors, whose hand he exhibited at the Estilo gallery, and who put him in contact with the artistic and intellectual circles of Madrid at the time. A primarily Mediterranean painter, his work focused from the beginning on landscape, although from the initial influence of Sorolla he evolved towards a more personal language, although equally sensitive to light and color. His is a synthetic, orderly and austere landscape, completely modern. Between 1951 and 1952 he traveled to Paris with a scholarship from the French government, and upon his return his recognition was completed with the first prize at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts. That same year he also reaped great success at the Venice Biennale. From then on he combined his artistic practice with teaching at the San Carlos Academy, where he held a teaching post between 1955 and 1977. At the same time, he held important exhibitions in Spain, South America, the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom, among other countries, mainly in Mediterranean Europe. Lozano was an honorary member of the Círculo de Bellas Artes (1952), member of the Valencian Council of Culture (1986) and doctor honoris causa by the Polytechnic University of Valencia (1994), and in 1993 an important retrospective exhibition was dedicated to him at the IVAM. His work is currently on display in museums such as the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Fundación Mendoza in Caracas, the Camón Aznar in Zaragoza, the IVAM in Valencia and the Fine Arts Museum in Montevideo, among others.
