About the Item
B.U.M. (for Big Ugly Monkey) is a work by contemporary Argentinian artist Marcelo Martin Burgos. The dimensions of the artworks are 88 cm × 83 cm × 35 cm (34.6 × 32.7 × 13.8 in).
Marcelo Burgos’ artistic universe is deeply anchored in childhood. The artist draws inspiration from the dreams and fears of children, where imaginary beings, demons, monsters, and dragons take center stage. His The Monsters series reflects this rich inner world, blending references to children’s drawings, manga, and cartoons with influences from African and Toltec art. Rather than appearing threatening, these golden-hued creatures resemble protective and comforting deities.
Working primarily in bronze, a material he values for its noble qualities and adaptability, Burgos especially appreciates its mirror-like shine when polished. This reflective quality invites viewers into the work, transforming the sculptures into intimate echoes of childhood. As the artist explains: “My aim is to conjure images and feelings that can remind us of the most creative, amazing and frightening years of our lives: the ‘golden’ age of childhood.”

Marcelo Martin Burgos
Marcelo Martin Burgos lives and works between Buenos Aires and Madrid. The artist’s golden bronze sculptures are anchored in the childhood universe he is fascinated about. Monsters, dragons, robots and other creatures populating childish imagination are the main subjects of his sculpture activity, also fed by the cinematic production he practices in parallel. Bronze, that he appreciates for its versatility and golden finish, allows him to create mirror-like sculptures that reflect the childhood images and memories of those who look at them. “My work is deeply connected to childhood and gold is a way to exalting children creativity. Childhood memories are golden.’’

BIOGRAPHY
Pollès was born in Paris in 1945
Like Leonard de Vinci in an anatomical search of perfection, of representation of movement,with an almost scientifical or medical glance, Pollès holds the utmost passion of anatomy: he learns about the human body, the complicated hank of muscles, movements of members and all the bodily mechanics. That’s why in 1964 he starts medicine school and along side goes to the Charpentier Academy where he follows art lessons.
In 1966, he encountered sculpture in...
