A Brussels-based Spanish artist, Manuel Delgado is a visual poet. He aims to develop expansive and innovative modes of writing about, with and as art. Within the visual arts discipline, Manuel is focused on 'Art Writing.' In that sense, Manuel focuses on multidisciplinary political poetic practices. He seeks to compose critical art forms from his non-orthodox artistic education, taking advantage of his theoretical basis in Law, Political Science and Philosophy. That is why Manuel is an outsider artist. His works set philosophical essays in modern aesthetics. Researching constitutes an ineludible part of his artistic production, being it a myriad of critical reflections which later on becomes the aura of any 'Art Writing' output. By fostering joint practices that combine poetry with illustration or photography or music, Manuel aspires to deliver a future memory of today’s images. In that regard, he promotes collaborative projects for depicting an utterly panorama of political processes, which are in the end based on many individuals’ perspectives. Read more
