BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST

Manuel Doblas -ROYO-, born in Humilladero (Málaga) in 1957, but trained 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 exhibitions from 1981 and held his first solo show in 1992, precisely in the same Sala Rusiñol where we now find him again. He has won many prizes in various places and has not minded regularly participating—he still does—in quick-painting contests all over the Spanish state. This, which for others may seem an obstacle, because after helping him gain fluency and discover his own formulas that define his style, often leads to recurring methods, has in his case represented a highly useful system for finding himself and being able to say with authority 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 with Manuel Doblas—never stop feeling the restlessness to go forward. That is why this painter, of 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 rail tracks that, after crossing junctions, are fixed because they serve the inner movement of people.

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