The Work and the Artist
ricardojorgeramalho13 January 2023
A documentary that aims to be an incursion into the daily life of Argentine photographer Marcos López, one of the main icons of so-called Latin pop art.

It is not a biography, although we get to know his mother, the children and see old movies, with the father, now deceased, and other family members at different times in his life. We hear about childhood, youth, travel, weddings, but always from a personal perspective, not a biographical one. We participate in his work, current and past, in an informal context, in the studio, in sessions, in the preparation of exhibitions, books, debates, conferences, in museums.

From all this emerges an image of the person behind the artist, in his family and creative daily life, so that the work can be better understood.

And in Marcos López, the work seems to be an emanation of the man, who then stands out, becomes autonomous, but which is always an integral part of a whole, which is man and his life experience.
