In the early nineties, Manu Muñoz (Cabo de Gata, Almería, 1977) began, completely accidentally, his relationship with the visual arts through graffiti: three years dedicated exclusively to creating murals and interventions of all kinds. In 1993 he was invited to participate in a collective charity exhibition, an event that marked a turning point in his career. In the last half of the nineties, he decided to dedicate himself almost entirely to painting, leaving graffiti in the background to work and experiment with new media and materials. It was during this period that he had his first exhibition in an art gallery in the Huertas neighborhood, in Madrid. From that moment on, different participations in group exhibitions took place inside and outside Spain and his creative work became the artist's vital axis. After a brief and necessary lethargy during 2005 and 2006, he moved to London, a city that produced a strong change in the artist and his work. There, in the Chelsea neighborhood, his exhibition “Psychotourism” reveals an unexpected turn towards figuration that remains in his work to this day. ver menos
