Elliot T\u00fapac est un s\u00e9rigraphe, typographe et muraliste p\u00e9ruvien qui a lanc\u00e9 la vogue des affiches chicha<\/em> dans les ann\u00e9es 80,<\/span> en parall\u00e8le avec l\u2019essor du courant musical du m\u00eame nom, qui m\u00ealait rythmes andins et sons tropicaux. Assez rapidement, l\u2019entreprise familiale de T\u00fapac se sp\u00e9cialisa dans la r\u00e9alisation d\u2019affiches aux couleurs fluorescentes pour ces groupes musicaux, en s\u2019inspirant des textiles traditionnels de la r\u00e9gion de Huancayo, dont sa famille \u00e9tait originaire.

Avec le succ\u00e8s croissant qu\u2019ont connu ses posters, T\u00fapac a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 d\u00e9velopper des exp\u00e9rimentations typographiques de plus en plus personnelles, sur des messages simples et efficaces. Ses commanditaires devinrent, \u00e0 l\u2019avenant, de plus en plus importants et il d\u00e9veloppa un intense activit\u00e9 de muraliste. L\u2019engagement d\u00e9lib\u00e9r\u00e9 de T\u00fapac r\u00e9side pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment dans le recours \u00e0 une esth\u00e9tique indig\u00e8ne, propre aux populations autochtones du P\u00e9rou, dans des contextes socio-\u00e9conomiques et politiques tr\u00e8s diff\u00e9rents. Il se fait ainsi le chantre d\u2019une identit\u00e9 p\u00e9ruvienne int\u00e9gr\u00e9e, adoptant les codes d\u2019une \u00e9conomie globalis\u00e9e, pour mieux l\u2019infiltrer. La s\u00e9rigraphie que nous pr\u00e9sentons ici Querer es poder<\/em> (aimer c’est le pouvoir<\/em> ou aimer c’est \u00eatre capable de<\/em>) se passe de commentaires et v\u00e9hicule un message simple et tellement vrai, qui insuffle une bouff\u00e9e d\u2019optimisme face aux d\u00e9fis qui nous attendent.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elliot Tupac is a Peruvian silkscreen artist, typographer and muralist who started the chicha poster craze in the 1980s, in parallel with the rise of the chicha music movement, which blended Andean rhythms and tropical sounds.<\/span> Tupac’s family business soon specialized in making fluorescent posters for these bands, drawing inspiration from traditional textiles from the Huancayo region, where his family was originally from. With the growing success of his posters, Tupac began to develop increasingly personal typographic experiments with simple and effective messages. His clients became increasingly important and he developed an intensive activity as a muralist.

Tupac’s deliberate commitment lies precisely in the use of an indigenous aesthetic, specific to the indigenous populations of Peru, in very different socio-economic and political contexts. In this way, he became the champion of an integrated Peruvian identity, adopting the codes of a globalized economy in order to better infiltrate it. The silkscreen that we present here Querer es poder<\/em> [loving is power<\/em> or to love is to be able to<\/em>] speaks for itself conveys a simple and very real message that gives us a sense of optimism in the face of the challenges ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-95699","extra","type-extra","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.centredelagravure.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/extra\/95699","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=95699"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
