VENTURA AMETLLER (Pals, 1933 – Mataró, 2008), born Bonaventura Clavaguera, was a Catalan polymath. Although he worked professionally as a veterinarian, he was interested by almost all aspects of the arts and his writings alone stretch from poetry and essay to narrative and the novel. His 1986 novel Summa Kaòtica is one of the pre-eminent works of Catalan surrealism.
