Man

‘Man’
November 2018

The article featuring this artwork is from Look Magazine 1967.
Patricia Coffin signs a column against women’s emancipation in which she urges men to get back to the head of their families.
The faceless model is from a French 60’s magazine.
The collage transfer technique gives the work its authentic vintage and worn look.

Man was first showed at the art show Retro Fantastic at the Dutch Design Hotel in Amsterdam in 2019.

For Retro Fantastic, I worked on the theme of the fantastic 50s and 60s.
Those were the days; the future was promising.
From nowadays reality, I looked back to the rise of capitalism and consumerism with a nostalgic and critical eye.
In this series, images of the good old days are set against a different reality. Tales of hope and glory when men conquered space, science was the future, bombs were power games and plastic was fantastic.

Man is a mixed media composition on canvas.
Acrylic paint, transfer collage, pastels, felt pen.
The artwork is signed, varnished and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
Box framing is optional.
