Manolo Valdés, a Spanish artist known for his unique method of drawing from art history to create his paintings, prints & sculptures in a signature style of pared-down forms & unrefined mark-making.
His busts & portraits with delicate & soft features always allude to women, caught in a moment & does not refer to specific individuals but rather idealized portraits in the tradition way as of Antic Egyptian or Roman statues. He visualises women based on their strength, their ability to interact with their environment & be part of the public space.
