Isidre Manils

Painter and professor at the Escola Massana. Isidre Manils is a continual source of unique stylistic resources, as he manipulates reality through veils and transparencies: his brushstrokes create layers of diffused light, glowing with meaning. His research into “the cinematographic gaze of painting” is one of the constant features that has been present throughout his long career. These connections with film, as present as they are in his production, enable his work to open up to filmic language, thus laying out a new and highly original creative horizon.
