Espejismo

"Espejismo" by Manuel Rivera exemplifies his mastery within the realm of Abstract art, reflecting his association with the Art informel movement. Created in 1966, Rivera's work features gestural textures and spontaneous techniques that emphasize materiality and expressive surface. As a prominent Spanish artist, he explores fleeting visions and illusions, resonating with the title "Espejismo" (Mirage), which suggests a transient or illusory perception. Rivera’s dynamic use of mixed media and layered applications evoke a sense of depth and movement, aligning with his innovative approach to abstraction and his focus on the sensuous qualities of art.
