Abad was born in 1956 in Lleida, Spain. [2] [3] [4] Abad's artistic training began with the teachings of his father, followed by a degree in Art History from the University of Barcelona (1979), and studies of engraving in Cuenca, London and Perugia.
His work has evolved away from a traditional sculptural practice [5] [6] to the use of new technologies, and in particular the creation of community-based artworks using cell phones. [7] [8] He moved also from photography to video art, followed by interest in computers Net.art. He uses Internet as a creative & research platform.

Antoni Taulé is a Spanish painter, architect, and performer. A street artist during the sixties, his art has been labelled as part of hyperrealism and a representative of the “new figurative” movement. He paints classical empty buildings and interiors: ballrooms, office receptions, halls of the Louvre museum, chambers of the Prado, the Palace of Versailles, monumental spaces that fuse reality and fiction under a fleeting atmosphere of light.
The building is actually just like a person. It has a heart, lungs, a nervous system, intestines, and eyes ... I am fascinated with what one can see, with the reason why does one look at it or avoid looking, and how one reflects upon what he sees. In one word my work is about how a man functions.
