Javier Mariscal
Javier Mariscal is, above all, a creator of images who uses all type of mediums and disciplines to develop his work: comic, illustration, graphic, textile and industrial design, painting, sculpture, multimedia, animation and interior design.
He has lived and worked in Barcelona since 1970. In 1988 Cobi is chosen as the Barcelona 92 Olympic Games mascot. The next year, Javier Mariscal creates the Mariscal Studio in Palo Alto ¬–a former leather tanning factory – with a team of collaborators capable of further developing his work.
He has recently designed floor 11 of the Hotel Puerta América from the hotel chain Silken Hotels, the graphic image of the America’s Cup 32nd edition, the new label Camper for Kids and the corporate image for the British post-production company Framestore.
Among other projects, he is currently working with the Hotel 550 Wellington in Toronto (Canadá), in the image for the America’s Cup next edition, in an animation film directed by Fernando Trueba and in a furniture design for UnoDesign.
He has further collaborated with companies such as Memphis, Akaba, Bidasoa, BD Ediciones de Diseño, Moroso, Nani Marquina, Vorwerk, Equipaje, Amat, Alessi, Sangetsu, Magis, Cosmic, Amat3, Santa & Cole, Lalique and Phaidon.
Mariscal expresses himself through a very personal language, very complex in intention but manifested in a simple manner, both innocent and provocative, and which helps him innovate, take risks and communicate aiming to continue tickling the eyes of those admiring his work and creating complicity with the spectator.
