This joyous lexical collision captures the spirit of subversive decompartmentalization and selective indifferentiation that pervades his work. Exploiting the nooks and crannies of popular culture, he summons and constructs through his work a self-mythology between fiction and reality, where art and literature rub shoulders with in differentiation much humour in the clich\u00e9s of our hyper-consumer society. <span class=\"has-inline-color has-accent-color-color\">The set of drawings, which we present here in an all-over arrangement, mixes two series that Calligaro pursues in parallel and regularly posts on social networks: <em>Poetricks,<\/em> which explicitly play on puns to point out with a critical and amused eye the shortcomings of our consumerist societies, and <em>Self-Portraits<\/em>, which are equally distanced and critical, which objectify the artist in a way in his fragmented identities as a social being, participating in the collective drifts of the art world.<\/span> With the generosity and commitment that characterize his practice and his position as an eccentric observer of the art world, Calligaro leaves it to the institution to choose the media and dimensions for the formatting of these drawings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-95641","extra","type-extra","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.centredelagravure.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/extra\/95641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.centredelagravure.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/extra"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.centredelagravure.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/extra"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.centredelagravure.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=95641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
