STRANGE GUYS
Framed Size: 140x130cm
acrylic on canvas
"Strange Guys" bears the title of this work. It is a way of manifesting a style and drawing creates an atmosphere.
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.
