Manuel López's drawings and paintings are informed by his immediate surroundings. Each piece is a careful examination of elements found around his environment: books, records, boxes, houseplants, various elements from his home, his neighborhood, and studio. López relies on observation, memories, materiality, touch, and presence to evoke a feeling of familiarity in the compositions. This show will present a series of still life works, executed in drawings and in paintings, developed during pandemic lockdowns. Taken together, the content of the drawings and paintings build a portrait of the artist - his memories and affections, his culture and personal history, expressed through carefully composed depictions of arranged objects. This is Manuel López’s first solo show with the gallery.
