Julio Abad Saiz
 | Biography: Born in Cuenca in 1949, Julio Abad Saiz defines himself as a self-
taught figurative sculptor who from an early age became interested in
art in its most diverse forms. Already at a very young age he began to
draw the characters of the movies he saw in the cinema. During
adolescence, he began to excel in the subject of drawing while
developing his skills in this discipline. However, he was fascinated to
see how a sculptor molded the mud with his hands. It is at this time
when he first comes into contact with the sculpture and discovers his
ability to shape the volumes. When the painting is parked, Julio Abad
Saiz makes his first sculpture at the Granero de Cuenca academy. After
completing a mold-making course at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of
San Fernando in Madrid, he turns to the sculpture and continues to make
numerous sculptures after more than thirty years of dedication.
