ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

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 from 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 prizes in various places and has not hesitated to participate regularly—he still does—in quick-painting competitions across the Spanish state. This, which for others might seem a obstacle, because after helping him gain fluidity and find formulas that define his style, often leads to recurring approaches, in his case has represented a highly useful system for finding himself and being able to say with authority what he desires.

Only those who fear explaining think 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 when capturing the verticality of skyscrapers and describes abandoned train stations because he is not interested in waiting, but in looking for exits toward a horizon marked by the railway lines that, beyond their crossings, remain fixed to 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 plastic expression and skilled in technique, he does not stop, but progresses.
