Is the artwork being produced from artists of diverse ethnic cultural and geographical <br /> identities so as to be somewhat representative of the population of the community? <br /> - Explain <br /> Response: <br /> Manolo Valdes has produced the work. Born in Valencia,Spain, in 1942.. <br /> Valdes is one of the few artists who have mastered multiple mediums, including <br /> drawing, painting, sculpture, and printmaking. In each form, he is considered highly <br /> original, technically sound, and continuously provocative. <br /> Influenced by historical masterpieces, Valdes creates large works, in which the <br /> lighting and colors express a sensation of tactility. His work is forceful and decorated <br /> with historical art symbols. The timelessness of the image as the axis of the visual <br /> experience is the determining factor in his creations. <br /> • <br /> In Valdes works, image and matter are fused in a body of work that wanders between <br /> - - Pop Art and material art, between social and political commitment and a continuous <br /> search for reinvention. <br /> • <br /> / s paw"Qf.the A'rt ritiOnlig 'a garl5 t3fi daft marl (and a sus that co :a <br /> kha USA 0.15: a'010.Yop, e4and,other HI,Sp lcMlfuO i NR'.rti'stisOR y fad a <br /> '�E+•' J. v +Q �t5 J lar J �,_T'T4�'^y y.
