Manuel Izquierdo

born Madrid, Spain, 1925; died Portland, Oregon, 2009
BiographyManuel Izquierdo began his art training at the École des Beaux Arts in Marseilles, France before relocating to the United States. In Portland he took classes at the Museum Art School as well as with sculptor Hilda Morris (1911–1991) and with Lloyd Reynolds (1902–1978), a nationally-known calligrapher and printmaker who taught Izquierdo how to make wood engravings. Izquierdo was instrumental in raising the profile of abstract sculpture in the Northwest through exhibitions of his work, numerous public art commissions, and his 46-year career as a teacher at the Museum Art School.
