CARLOS MANRIQUE

ABOUT THE WORK 

"La Pausa" is like a break for musicians. I do a tribute to the musicians. Music is a form of healthy entertainment. I paint with music and that is why I put a lot of color on this work. I painted a series of three artwork and this artwork is the first.

ABOUT THE ARTIST 

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.
