Louis-Félix Delarue Art
1730-1777
Louis-Félix Delarue was born on October 19th, 1730, in Paris. An elder brother of Philibert-Benoît de la Rue and a student of Lambert-Sigisbert Adam, Delarue was a draughtsman and sculptor. He was a quite eccentric artistic figure who had drawn his vision of mythology and ancient history in a pre-romantic mood, often pessimistic and desperate as if he had felt he was living in the last years of an historic era. Delarue won the Prix de Rome award in 1750 and obtained the certificate of student sculptor of the Academy of Rome in September 1754. He was admitted to the National Academy of San Luca, Rome, in 1760. Delarue passed away in Paris on June 24th, 1777.

Undefined by medium, Celso Castro’s works each carry the presence of the artist’s hand through the transparency of their process. Castro’s oeuvre is strongly divided between his photomontage assemblies and watercolor paintings: the prior is marked by the labor-intensive deconstruction of portrait photographs and the latter, by the seemingly frenzied recreation of a past encounter rendered in the drips and scribbles of paint and ink. Both discriminating in what they reveal of the subject, his photomontage and watercolor portraits exude raw sexuality through the combination of Castro’s mark-making and gaze. Celso Castro’s work is a bare-bulb erotic photo foray into the underbelly of Colombia’s drug world. Castro’s labor-intensive, photo-collage works of drug kingpins, smugglers, hitmen, countrymen, street vendors, soldiers, paramilitaries, kidnappers, and pimps pose showing with pride their erect penises...
