About the Item
Self-Portrait Raised to the Highest Exponent
Aluminum and plastic on glass
80x80 cm
The work of Lidó Rico focuses on the body, as an icon but also as a medium. Indeed, his own body constitutes the iconic material of his creations when he uses it as their mould. From this point of view, his work, on be corning a permanent reproduction of his corporeal shapes, could lead us to think that it is a personal, almost narcissistic exercise. However, the results show that nothing could be further from the truth.
in his works, Lidò Rico explores the loneless of mankind and its inner emptiness. The fear of defeat causes almost physical pain to his heroes, they disintegrate into parts, and they are absorbed by space.
Because Lidó Rico uses his body to express stares of pain and anguish that, what is more, do not refer to himself but to a generic individual: modern-day man. There is, therefore, complicity with the environment, meaning a commitment such as that acquired by artists in Franco’s time, although the very different circumstances of this period impose different discourses. It is not now about revealing the blatantly repressive conduct of power, but the state of disintegration that awaits the individual in this post-industrial society.
