Isidre Manils (Mollet del Vallès, 1948), painter and teacher from Sabadell. His family owned the Ateneo cinema and this contact with the world of cinema together with his interest in painting were to shape his future career. At the end of the 1980s he changed from design to teaching and started giving classes at the Escola Massana, where he is currently a teacher.
Since the 1970s he has had both joint and solo exhibitions while also regularly participating in contemporary art fairs and biennials.
