Manuel León : “Un mundo sin luz”

The CAC Málaga presents, the first solo exhibition of the artist from Seville Manuel León, in a museum.

A world without light is the name of the exhibition curated by Fernando Francés and consists of 42 works that address current issues from a critical and ironic point of view at the same time.

With baroque influences, Manuel Leon’s paintings represent penitents with covered faces, ingrained into popular culture, especially during Holy Week.

These figures allow the artist to conceal the feelings that are felt in today’s society, such as the crisis of values, as well as economical. The artist wants to draw attention to the hopes and fears that each individual has to face in the present era.

Manuel Leon lives and works in Seville.
