David Magán
(B. 1979, Madrid, Spain) is a contemporary sculptor and
installation artist whose work explores the interplay between light,
colour, and space, exploring themes of perception and materiality.
Trained in wood and metal sculpture at La Palma School of Art,
Madrid, Spain (1999–2004), Magán honed his skills in creative stained
glass, which became an initial key element of his practice. Currently,
Magán divides his time between Guadalajara and Madrid (Spain),
directing the David Magán Studio with his brother Kiko Magán, an
engineer whose collaboration has been pivotal in accomplishing their
shared vision.
Initially, Magán’s career focused on stained glass, though using
geometry and mathematics he reimagined flat surfaces to create three
dimensional sculptural compositions. Themes such as harmony,
translucence, and the interaction between light, colour, and shadow
permeated his early work. By integrating steel cables and spatial
lattices, he freed glass from its traditional frames, achieving a sense of
lightness and complexity derived from simplicity. These explorations
laid the groundwork for later iconic concepts, such as modular
structures and the use of tensegrity.
Magán’s practice evolved to emphasize the relationship between
artwork, space, and spectator. Using industrial processes and digital
design tools, he created works that fuse with their architectural
surroundings.
David Magán’s works have been showcased in prestigious art fairs,
including ARCOmadrid (Madrid, Spain), Art Cologne (Cologne,
Germany), Pinta Miami (Miami, USA), Art Toronto (Toronto, Canada),
ArtLima (Lima, Peru), and Zona MACO (Mexico City, Mexico), and are
held in major collections such as Museum Ritter (Waldenbuch,
Germany), Centro de Arte Tomás y Valiente (Fuenlabrada, Spain),
Museum of Contemporary of Madrid (Madrid, Spain), Fundación
Centro Nacional del Vidrio (Segovia, Spain) and the Murano Glass
Museum (Venice, Italy). David’s creative prowess continues to
challenge the perception of light and colour, seeking to transcend the
boundaries of the material and immaterial worlds, through practices
based on observation, research, precision and imagination.
