Javier Mariscal was born in Valencia in 1950.  Beginning with his first drawings in the 1970s, Mariscal has shown an incontrollable creativity, his need of expressing himself coming through several different disciplines artistic and not.  Furniture design, painting, sculpture, interior design, graphic design, landscape design, gardening and horticulture are all elements of his professional activity.  Javier Mariscal expresses himself through a very personal language which is theoretically complex but practically simple.  His work is sometimes innocent, but always provocative.
