Catalogue Note
"I am just a narrator who comments on the history of painting in various ways, using new materials: it is like a game that consists of changing the code and the key to the artwork […] Many of my colors, materials and textures are the product of relived experiences of other masters. My painting involves much reflection.” Manolo Valdés
