About the Item

The Death of Callisto is the contemporary artwork realized by LBS (A.K.A. Bruno Salvatore Latella) in 2020s. Fine Art Giclée Litography on Hahnemühle Photo Rag. Title in the back of the artwork. Hand signed by the artist. Numbered on the lower margin and in the back. Numbering of 10 print runs. Wrapped in a golden drape, the body of Callisto, though emblematic of idealized chastity, bears the inscription “THIS IS NOT FOR YOU” in scarlet letters marking the goddess's skin. It is a warning, a claim of autonomy, a clear rejection of the right of possession that consumerism seeks to exert over the female body, and beyond. The work is a stage where classical tragedy meets modern critique, where the intricate and elegant golden frame encloses a scene of rawness and reality. This visual dissonance resonates with the issue of chastity, a historical and social value that is questioned, challenged, and reshaped within the contours of a contemporary world that often misinterprets and exploits it. Saturated colors and unsettling details blend to create an atmosphere that is both dreamlike and disturbing, evoking a palpable tension. The solitary rose and vivid grass underscore stifled vitality, while the sky in shades of pink and purple suggests a universe of suppressed possibilities. “The Death of Callisto” questions, provokes, and invites critical reflection on the female reality in a society that all too often distorts the concepts of purity and violation. The work is not just a nod to mythology and classical art but a powerful assertion that shakes the collective conscience, urging it to confront the consequences of a system that preaches profit at the expense of human essence. With this work, the artist emphasizes the crisis of an ideology that sacrifices identity and integrity for gain, offering a visual meditation on chastity and violence in modern society. A meditation that, in its paradoxical existence, becomes a call to reconsider, respect, and protect the sanctity of the individual against all forms of oppression and commodification. LBS (A.K.A. Bruno Salvatore Latella), a visual artist born in Reggio Calabria in 1999, graduated with a Master's Degree in Primary Education Sciences. From classical music to visual art, LBS uniquely combines pedagogical humanities studies with his artistic production, transforming ideas and visions into captivating works of art. Positioned at the intersection of pedagogy and artivism, LBS has quickly gained notoriety, collecting prestigious awards. His powerful and socially critical street art has received widespread recognition and appearances in national media. LBS courageously addresses societal issues, inviting the viewer to openly confront the challenges of the contemporary world. His unique vision merges with artivism in the "liquid super-society," symbolically exploring contemporary society and the lack of dreams and certainties. With a technique that combines photography, digital drawing, fine art print design, and painting, LBS draws inspiration from various artistic movements, creating a sharp visual language. His works communicate a conceptual and social message, with a pedagogical profile reflecting his academic background. LBS has been featured in major exhibitions and publications, with a steady growth in his artistic career. Prepare to be captivated by LBS, an artist who uses art as a catalyst for change, invoking our humanity and offering a bright hope for the future.
