ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

Manuel Doblas, born in Humilladero (Málaga) in 1957, but educated from a very young age in Catalonia and with a mindset well rooted among us, has been a painter for many years. He followed the path of group shows from 1981 onward and held his first solo exhibition in 1992, precisely in this same Sala Rusiñol where we find him again today. He has won many prizes in various places and he has not hesitated to regularly participate – he still does – in quick-painting contests across the Spanish state. This, which for others may seem an obstacle, because after helping him gain ease and to find his own formulas that define his style, often leads to recurring arbitrary methods, in his case has represented a highly useful system for finding himself and being able to say with conviction what he desires.

Only those who are afraid to explain believe they will find themselves very soon. And those who are always thinking – this is the case of Manuel Doblas – never cease to feel the urge to move forward. That is why this painter, about whom we now see what he has just done, seeks high spaces by capturing the verticality of skyscrapers and describes abandoned train stations because he is not interested in waiting, but rather in seeking exits toward a horizon marked by the iron rails which, beyond the crossings, remain fixed because they serve the inner movement of people.

Manuel Doblas has changed his way of expressing himself and he has done so for the better. Gifted in visual expression and with mastery of technique, he does not stop, but moves forward.
