About the Item
This is an abstract landscape created by Javier Manrique in 2022. A landscape is a reading of the physical characteristics and aesthetics of the geographic space but also of the intellectual and spiritual conditions that it awakens in the viewer. In this abstract landscape, space is stripped of its representational qualities and all its visual components are synthetized into fields of color. Representation becomes secondary, even superfluous. The compositional and chromatic richness - or simplicity - comes first and manifests in the artist's most intimate perception of things. This abstract landscape symbolize a territory but it is a non-specific, non-identifiable one. Geography is materialized in this painting but the landscape also evoke immaterial places and the invisibility of emotions.
(Text by Maliyel Beverido, Art Mediator)
Javier Manrique (b. 1958, Tijuana, Mexico) is a San Francisco-based artist whose paintings are about the viewer’s place in space while his graphic work tends to be more of a chronology of time, using figurative images, archetypes, and symbols to give an idea of some situation within time. Manrique works in a variety of art forms including fresco, painting, photography and printmaking. He has participated in biennials and individual and group exhibitions in Mexico and the United States. He began studying art in Humboldt County, California then moved to Mexico to learn printmaking at the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Printmaking (ENPEG), La Esmeralda, in Mexico City. He later earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the San Francisco Art Institute. Manrique has taught the Complete Fresco Course at the San Francisco Art Institute and California College for the Arts. Manrique lives and works in San Francisco, California.
