MEETING
Framed Size: 140x140cm

These are groups of people standing on the street in a certain place who talk about politics or criticize others or talk about any topic. That is why it bears the title of "Meeting" and plastically the characters are painted very sagas that create a true atmosphere of the situation.
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.
