Artist Statement
Staatsburg by Manuel Santelices
Ink pen and watercolor on paper
Unframed
2022
Manuel Santelices explores the world of fashion, society, and pop culture through his illustrations. A Chilean artist and journalist living and working in the US for the last 20 years. After writing stories about style, design, art, and politics for a number of magazines, including the Spanish editions of Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, and Esquire, and being a fashion writer for Vogue Mexico and Latin American for seven years, Manuel decided to focus his attention to illustration, painting mostly with watercolors the same characters and events he covered as a journalist.
The result is a series of one-of-a-kind watercolors, which brings together social and fashion icons from different eras, from Diana Vreeland to Anna Wintour, in a show that seems to be ripped from the pages of a glossy magazine.
