BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST

Manuel Doblas, 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 starting in 1981 and held his first solo show in 1992, precisely in this same Sala Rusiñol where we find him again today. He has won many awards in diverse places and has not been deterred from regularly participating—he still does—in speed-painting contests throughout Spain. This, which for others may be an obstacle, because after helping to gain fluency and to find personal formulas that define his style, often leads to recurring methods, in his case has represented a highly useful system to find himself and to be able to say with propriety what he desires.

Only those who are afraid to explain things believe that they will find themselves very quickly. And those who are always thinking—this is the case of Manuel Doblas—never stop feeling the restlessness to go forward. Therefore 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; rather, he looks for exits toward a horizon marked by the iron tracks that, after crossing, 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.
