José Manuel Broto Gimeno

José Manuel Broto Gimeno (born 1949 in Zaragoza) is a Spanish painter.

After ten years in Paris where he met other Spanish artists such as Miquel Barceló, Miguel Angel Campano and José María Sicilia, he moved to Mallorca.

His paintings are typically intellectual, thoughtful and very calculated in their apparent spontaneity, and reminiscent of Analytic Cubism.

[4] He often uses blue or yellow and red on black, and his brushwork is typically broad and uneven, often contrasting the blurry and the clear.

His pictorial works are said to have a "strong chromatic component that combines the geometric shapes with dribbled paint.
