Abstract

BLANCO-BARRERA, Ramon. For a social reflection: the power of the graphic and activism in the performative and installative (video)constructions of Manuel Casellas. Estúdio [online]. 2021, vol.12, n.34, pp.43-52.  Epub June 30, 2021. ISSN 1647-6158.

This research analyzes the powerful graphic and activism of the artwork by the Sevillian artist Manuel Casellas. Through the performative and installative (video)constructions of this artist, this work assumes the objective of presenting a clear example of how drawing can become sculpture, three-dimensionalizing towards a deep reflection on the social. Works such as A fuego (2012) and Sistemas ED.1 (2014) or exhibitions such as A la deriva (2018), invite the public to participate in the image without ending up indifferent.

Keywords : Manuel Casellas; graphic; activism; video; society.
