Manuel Hurtado Mateos is a painter whose mastery of hyperrealism has allowed him to stand out in contemporary Spanish figuration. His technique, focused on the precision of detail and the study of light, has recently been recognized by masters such as Antonio López at the Ibáñez Museum. His work, which ranges from portraits to still lifes, is part of institutional collections such as the Museum of Contemporary Spanish Realism (MUREC). He has thus established himself as an artist who, through technical perfectionism, manages to capture the vital essence of objects and people.
