Ana Manso

  • Ana Manso’s (b.1984, Lisbon) painterly practice savvily conjoins the mysterious and uncontrollable with knowledge and craft, both in her process, physically, and in her spiritual ideas, metaphysically. Manso’s abstract paintings are incredibly capable of capturing that illusory nature of reality and knowledge, pushing our boundaries by trying to understand them, yet being able at once to fascinate with their striking and simple beauty. Her process includes adding to oil painting peculiar treatments of her canvases, such as tie-dye, stamping or stencil, odd forms and shapes, like her signature-style tall and thin paintings, and immersive architectonic interventions. Manso holds a BA in Painting from the Faculty of Fine Arts at University of Lisbon (2007) and she has recently exhibited at Pedro Cera (Lisbon, 2024), MAMOTH (London, 2023), Oliva Art Centre (São João da Madeira, 2022), Galleria Umberto Di Marino (Naples, 2020), Mudam The Contemporary Art Museum of Luxembourg (Luxembourg, 2020), Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art (Porto, 2017), and FUTURA Centre for Contemporary Art (Prague, 2016) among others. Her work is represented in public collections including Mudam Luxembourg, Serralves Museum, Lisbon City Council, António Cachola Collection, and Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation to name a few. Manso lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal.
