CÉSAR MANRIQUE CABRERA (Lanzarote, 1919 - 1992). Untitled. Silkscreen, copy P.A. Signed and justified by hand. Measurements: 70 x 100 cm. Painter, sculptor and architect, Manrique was formed between Lanzarote and Madrid, where he studied in the Superior School of Fine Arts of San Fernando. In 1942 he made his individual debut in Lanzarote, and during the fifties, with the rise of surrealism, he founded the Fernando Fe gallery, the first non-figurative gallery in Spain. During these years he painted several murals in Lanzarote and exhibited his work in several countries. In 1964 he moved to New York where he exhibited, among others, at the Catherine Viviano Gallery. Two years later he settled definitively in Lanzarote where, together with the architect Fernando Higueras, he undertook various projects on the island. In 1992, a few months before his death in a traffic accident, the Foundation that bears his name was inaugurated in Lanzarote. His artistic work earned him awards such as the Gold Medal of Fine Arts (1980), the Goslarer Monchenhsus Prize in Germany (1981), the Van D'Aheod Prize in the Netherlands (1982) and the Fritz Schumacher Prize in Hamburg (1989), among others. He is currently represented at the Museo de Arte Abstracto Español and the Centro Atlántico de Arte Moderno, among other centers and collections.
