Born in 1944 in Havana, Cuba, Mendive's work often incorporates elements of Santería, a syncretic religion with roots in Yoruba traditions. He gained international recognition for his unique artistic style, which blends traditional African imagery with contemporary artistic techniques. Mendive's work has been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, and he is considered one of the most important contemporary artists in Cuba. Una cosa sin cuerpo: "La cosa sin cuerpo" (The Thing Without a Body) is one of Manuel Mendive's notable artworks. Created in 1975, it's a mixed media piece that represents an abstract figure without a physical form, embodying Mendive's exploration of spiritual themes and the invisible forces that shape human existence. The artwork reflects Mendive's interest in Afro-Cuban religious practices and the belief in unseen spiritual entities. It's an example of his ability to convey complex ideas and emotions through his artistic expression. Cuerpos en el agua: CUERPOS EN EL AGUA" (Bodies in the Water) is another significant work by Manuel Mendive. Created in 1985, this painting captures the essence of Afro-Cuban spirituality and the relationship between humans and nature. The title suggests a scene of bodies submerged in water, which symbolizes the connection between life and the divine.

"CUERPOS EN EL AGUA" is celebrated for its evocative imagery and profound exploration of the human experience within the context of spirituality and nature. Hoy Amenecia: Manuel Mendive Hoy Amanecía" (Manuel Mendive Today the Dawn Broke) is a captivating artwork by Manuel Mendive that reflects his deep connection to nature and his exploration of spiritual themes. This piece, created in 1981, features vibrant colors and intricate details to depict a scene of dawn breaking over a natural landscape.
