A talented figurative expressionist painter, Manzo offers a dynamic perspective evocative of LaCa’s belief in art’s ability to articulate universal experiences among diverse cultures.

Mar de Mares, Leandro Manzo’s second solo exhibition at LaCa Projects, will include works from his monochrome series, which Manzo considers the backbone of his ouevre, as well as a new series of watercolors which he created based on his recent sailings from the Pacific to the Atlantic Oceans and through the Panama Canal.

This range of genres is testament to Manzo’s versatility as a figurative expressionist. He exposes the unique and essential perfection that exists in every object, working above reason to reveal the beautiful unity and order that lies beyond the physical. Manzo’s paintings reflect his general belief in the interminable nature of discovery. Along this philosophical trajectory, he dismisses all previous encounters and reproductions of a subject in order to deliver a uniquely new representation each time.
