Additional Information

Jim Bird (1937 - 2010) was born in Bloxwich, United Kingdom and received his artistic education at the Walsall School of Art and at the Wolverhampton College of Art where he studied graphic design. 

In 1968, Bird left a successful design studio in England to live as an artist in Spain. He soon joined the Galeria Joan Prats in Barcelona, one of the most prestigious galleries in Spain. In 1980, he and his wife moved to New York, where he became acquainted with several key names in abstract art, such as Robert Motherwell, Kenneth Noland, Helen Frankenthaler, Christo, and the British sculptor Sir Anthony Caro.

Bird's work often depicted what he called the landscape of the mind, which was about the space the human soul creates to explore its freedom. Often this was related to his memories and feelings about Spain.

Jim Bird's work has been shown in galleries and collected by museums in Spain, England, Germany, the United States and worldwide.
