“The distinctive neo-Pop style of Romero Britto has made a significant impact on the world of art. With clean, bold, and colorful imagery, this young artist subtly delivers strong, poignant messages in a refreshing and upbeat manner. His masterful use of form and color resonate with activism, allowing him to address a variety of social and political issues without any of the harsh preaching found in much of contemporary art. Britto’s work embodies the expressionist color patterns of the Fauves, the multi-dimensional facets of Cubism, and the reference to mass culture in Pop Art. This is the first book on Britto and it includes 90 large color reproductions of his paintings and graphics, as well as a profile of his life and career.” The Brazilian artist is also known for his sculptures and his ‘neo-pop’ wall decorations. Foreword by Nan Miller and Aaron Young. Photographs of paintings by Ira Victor and Michael Hager, other photographs by Andrew Melick. Includes listings of exhibitions.
