José Juan Bigas Luna (19 March 1946, in Barcelona – 5 April 2013, in la Riera de Gaià, Catalonia), known artistically as Bigas Luna, was a Spanish film director, designer and artist. His films are typically characterised by a strong emphasis on the erotic, often related to food, something for which he admitted a strong passion. His work often explores and parodies clichés of Spanish identity, but he had an international career and has made films in the Spanish, Catalan, Italian, French and English languages.
