Gestern mussten wir uns leider von einem ganz besonderen Zauberkünstler verabschieden. Juan Tamariz' Einfluss auf die Magie allgemein und die Kartenmagie im Besonderen kann gar hoch genug eingeschätzt werden und ich verneige mich, so wie Tausende andere Magier weltweit und auch schon zu seinen Lebzeiten, vor seinem Lebenswerk.
Bitte seht euch seine Videos an, teilt sie und lasst ihn und seine Magie dadurch weiterleben und Menschen erfreuen, so wie sie es sein ganzes Leben getan haben! Danke Maestro für Deine Liebe zur Magie und Deine Genialität!
Yesterday, we sadly had to say goodbye to a truly extraordinary magician.
Juan Tamariz’s influence on magic in general—and card magic in particular—cannot be overstated. Like thousands of magicians around the world, who already celebrated him during his lifetime, I bow before his remarkable legacy.
Please watch his videos, share them, and help ensure that he and his magic live on, continuing to bring joy to people just as they did throughout his life.
Thank you, Maestro, for your love of magic and for your genius!
In Memoriam — Juan Tamariz (1942–2026)
The world of magic has lost one of its true masters.
Juan Tamariz was far more than an extraordinary magician. He was a teacher, thinker, innovator and an inspiration to generations of magicians around the world. His unique personality, unmistakable laughter and profound understanding of our art made him one of the most influential figures in modern magic.
His legacy will live on through his performances, his teachings and in the countless magicians whose lives and magic he touched.
FISM International extends its deepest condolences to his family, friends and the entire magic community.
Thank you for the magic, Maestro.
Your magic will live on.
Juan Tamariz — 1942–2026
