Ángeles Agrela (b. Úbeda, 1966) is one of the highest-profile Andalusian artists of her generation on the domestic stage. She works with fabric, video, photography, painting, drawing and graphic art. Her creative process tends to follow a narrative line with groups of works where each piece gives way to the next as part of a single story. Her work has always been closely associated with the body, with women and with the links between their work and the world of art.
Since 1994, at least 35 individual exhibitions of her work have been staged at private galleries in Spain and the Netherlands and at public venues in Italy, France, Germany and Belgium. She has also taken part in group exhibitions in Switzerland, Mexico, Berlin, Miami, Brazil and New York. She has received awards including the L’Oreal Prize, the Visual Arts Award of the Regional Government of Cantabria and, more recently, the Canal Sur Audience Award for Visual Arts.
Her work can be seen in numerous public and private collections such as those of the Andalusia Contemporary Art Centre (Seville), the Unión Fenosa Museum of Contemporary Art (A Coruña), the L'Oreal Spain Collection, the Caja San Fernando Collection (Seville), the El Monte Foundation (Seville), the Cajastur Collection (Gijón), the Caja Vital Kutxa (Vitoria), the Collection of the Regional Government of Cantabria, the Contemporary Art Collection of the UNED, the Rafael Botí Provincial Foundation for Plastic Arts (Cordoba) and the collections of the provincial councils of Granada, Jaén, Cadiz, Malaga and Huelva.
