Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Fabio de Miguel (also known as Fanny McNamara and Fabio McNamara) is a Spanish artist born on January 8, 1957, in Madrid. He is known for his work in music, film, and especially his colorful pop art paintings.

Fabio grew up in the Alameda de Osuna area of Madrid. He was an important part of a lively cultural movement called La Movida Madrileña in the 1980s. This movement was a time of great change and creativity in Spain, especially in music, film, and art, after a long period of strict rules. Many of his friends were also famous artists from this time, including director Pedro Almodóvar and singer Olvido Gara (known as Alaska). Fabio often worked with them on films and songs.

Later, Fabio focused more on his unique pop art paintings. His art often uses bright colors and bold images, and he has shown his work in major art fairs like ARCO, which is a very famous art fair in Spain. His paintings sometimes explore ideas about faith and life.
