Polígrafa Obra Gráfica was launched in 1964 by Manuel de Muga and has since published editions featuring over 300 leading artists. In the 1970s Joan de Muga, son of the founder, opened Polígrafa's own workshop with facilities for etching, lithography, woodcuts, and other traditional print techniques. In its early years, Polígrafa published editions by artists who are today recognized as among the foremost of their time, such as Christo, Max Ernst, Wifredo Lam, Roberto Matta, Joan Miró, Larry Rivers, Rufino Tamayo and Antoni Tapies. Current partners Joan de Muga, José Aloy, and Álvaro Puigdengolas continue the business, inviting artists to the workshop in Barcelona to develop new projects with other renowned contemporary artists.
