“Comic books always played a very strong influence into Rucci’s work, in this piece we appreciate characters Aquaman and Mera in a highly sexualized representation, another recurring trait of this artist”

Aquaman y Mera – Damian Rucci
Acrylic on canvas / 120 x 100 cm

“The highly sexualized male figure is always very present in Rucci’s work, a lack of erotic representation of males throughout art history was the main trigger for his series Los Bellos (the beautiful ones)“

“One of his more recent works, where the traditional figure of pre-colombian monsters are replaced by more abstract forms. This piece is key onto the evolution of the artist”

“For his last show in Buenos Aires, before moving to Berlin, the artist Teko prepared an exhibition exalting the tropical influence he had over his 24 years living in latin america, that combined with pop culture references and a acute sense of humor gave place to a very particular body of work.”

“Prior to his moving from Buenos Aires the artist had a very productive season, where he put into work his over 24 years of tropical influence, this body of work later became his latest solo show ‘bye bye Buenos Aires’ where he exhibited his latest work alongside some early works”
