DER AUFTRITT
Framed Size: 150x150cm
acrylic on canvas
"The Performance" is a work that belongs to a series. I started the series with the work "The Break". It's a series I'm doing as a tribute to musicians.
The Venezuelan Carlos Manrique lives and works for many years in Cologne. His world of pictures and objects always remained determined by the impressions and experiences of his homeland. Drawing patterns look like living, enlarged little creatures, Masks dance on his canvases and mythologize each of his pictures. Manrique moves on the fine line of the symbiosis of art and ethnology.
