• Lot Description
  MANUEL MARÍN (Cieza, Murcia, 1942 - Málaga, 2007). Untitled, c. 70's. Polychrome iron. Signed with die. Measurements: 17 x 27 x 15 cm. It is worth mentioning the work of Manuel Marín, which shows his clear link with the avant-garde currents, the application and development of them in his own production through a unique and personal language. Manuel Marín started in the world of bullfighting at the age of ten, and made his first bullfight at the age of sixteen. However, at the age of twenty he traveled to London and began working in an art gallery, entering definitively into the world of sculpture. There he met the British artist Henry Moore, who hired him as an assistant in the realization of his bronze sculptures. In 1964 he moved to New York, where he worked as an art restorer until he opened his own gallery, The American Indian Art Gallery, which counted among its clients Warhol, Basquiat, De Kooning, Keith Haring and others. Attracted to mobile sculptures, he began creating his own works in 1969, and the following year held his first exhibition at the Alan Brown Gallery in Scardele, New York. Since then he has shown his work in various New York venues, as well as in Canada, Italy, Mexico, China, Puerto Rico, Japan and Spain. He currently has public monuments in various parts of the United States and Spain, and is represented in Spanish and foreign collections, having achieved critical and public recognition for his artistic production.
