------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Josep Maria Morató Aragonès :
Josep Maria Morató Aragonès (Reus 1923 - Barcelona 2006) was a Catalan painter born in Reus, spent much of his youth in Cornudella (from where his mother was originally) after the death of his father, a veterinarian, who worked in Reus. As a child he drew and modeled figures with mud on the street. In the village, around 1936, he met Ignasi Mallol , a professor at the Art School of Tarragona and Iu Pascual , who painted the Montsant. with which Morato aided in painting. In 1940, Iu Pascual encouraged him to truely pursue art, and so Morató Aragonès enrolled in the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts. It was here he made friends with Bonaventura Puig Perucho, of which he considered himself a disciple. In 1950 he went to Paris, where he visited Pinacotecs and met artists. He traveled to Spain, and in 1954 he returned to Paris, where he consolidated his expressionist style . He exhibited mainly in Barcelona and Madrid, and in Reus, Zaragoza, Bilbao, and other capitals. He won several artistic medals, in Reus the Fortuny Medal, and prizes in Mataró, Badalona, ??Morella, Sant Pol de Mar and others.
His daughter, Maria Elena Morató, published the book "Dibujos" in 1989 , with a representative sample of the work of her father the artist.
