Contemporary artist, Manuel Mané, was born in Achern, Germany in 1985.

His passion for art begun after viewing a documentary film about Jean Michel Basquiat, which greatly inspired the young autodidact artist and greatly influenced his visual language.

One of the main reasons that drew Manuel Mané to paint, was a for of self-expression, seeking for the reduction of chaos in one’s existence, through bringing one’s emotions and feelings on canvas. When in the creative process, Manuel admits, that countless ideas come to him simultaneously, connecting various elements in the form of the painting.
