Emanuel Tovar is a multidisciplinary artist represented by the Madrid gallery La Caja Negra (Spain and Mexico -Proyecto Paralelo) and the Páramo gallery (Mexico). Tovar was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, where he currently lives and works. Tovar's work is based on the conflicts and vulnerabilities of the human condition. He is interested in matter, in sculpture as a reflection of a social context, as a means for the construction of dialogues. His geometric deconstructions, which appear to be mere formal exercises, function as a metaphor for the disintegration of structural lines that are fractured and transformed. Fragility becomes a constant in his creative search as he questions social schemes and those of art itself.
