Jerónimo López Ramírez (Ciudad de México, 1972), mejor conocido como Dr. Lakra, crea imágenes irreverentes y provocadoras que transgreden las normas establecidas y llevan al espectador a la frontera entre la atracción y la repulsión. Empezó a explorar la pintura, el dibujo y el collage cuando se unió al Taller de los viernes –el taller de Gabriel Orozco– junto a Abraham Cruzvillegas, Damián Ortega y Gabriel Kuri. Su obra se distingue por intervenciones con pintura y dibujo hechas directamente sobre posters, revistas eróticas y tarjetas postales, aunque también abarca el tatuaje, la pintura mural, el collage y la escultura. A través de estos medios, Dr. Lakra explora su interés por la antropología y la etnografía con las que documenta su fascinación por tabúes, fetiches, mitos y rituales de distintas culturas. Ferviente coleccionista de objetos, Dr. Lakra concibe la búsqueda de materiales e imágenes como un aspecto esencial de su trabajo. Sus composiciones combinan referencias históricas e imágenes contemporáneas intercaladas con iconografías religiosas y alusiones a la cultura popular. La manera en la que yuxtapone estos elementos revela tanto un gran conocimiento de la historia del arte como un subversivo sentido del humor. Dr. Lakra desmantela y perturba las ideologías dominantes para cuestionar lo que se considera civilizado o barbárico, correcto o incorrecto, “alta cultura” o folclor.Síguenos en redes:http://instagram.com/cableatierrapodhttp://facebook.com/cableatierrapodcasthttp://instagram.com/tanialicious Hosted on Acast.

The Mexican artist Abraham Cruzvillegas creates beautiful, thought-provoking sculptures using items that other people have thrown away - from old plastic crates and driftwood to childrens' toys and birdcages. Anything can be transformed into his art. His inspiration comes from growing up on the outskirts of Mexico City, in a house built by his parents using any materials they could find. He has exhibited across the world including at the prestigious Turbine Hall at the Tate in London. As Abraham constructs his latest exhibition, Autorreconstruccion: Social Tissue at the Kunsthaus in Zurich, Switzerland, he talks to Jo Fahy about his work, his ideas about inclusivity, the importance of beer to his creative process and the challenges when a sculpture collapses.
