BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST

Manuel Doblas, born in Humilladero (Málaga) in the year 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 exhibition in 1992, precisely in this same Sala Rusiñol where we now find him again. He has won many awards in various places and has not minded participating regularly – he still does – in quick-painting contests throughout the Spanish State. This, which for others may seem an obstacle, because after helping to gain ease and to find his own formulas that define his style, often leads to arbitrary recurring methods, in his case has represented a highly useful system to meet himself and to be able to say with propriety what he desires.

Only those who are afraid to explain believe that they will find themselves very soon. And those who are always thinking – this is the case of Manuel Doblas – never stop feeling the restlessness to move 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 in seeking exits toward a horizon marked by the iron tracks which, having passed the crossings, are 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 for plastic expression and master of technique, he doesn't stop, but moves forward.
