Victor Rodriguez 95 / 05

Victor Rodriguez a mexican realistic painter living in New York has found beauty in our postmodern decadence. As overwhelming and multi-referential as "The Simpsons episode" or a Jan Vermeer, he suggests new perspectives. In his very large format paintings that won him the Rufino Tamayo Biennale prize, he presents portraits of himself and ex-wife Maite, surrounded by meaningful paraphernalia. This is a second edition of a book that follow 10 years of the extraordinary work of a very special artist.
