Artist's Statement

Submitted by Robert Gomez on Sun, 2009-06-28 16:59

My work is in the tradition of the satirical print. My goal is to portray the absurdities that exist in the world around me in both my personal sphere and the greater world of mass culture and politics. Rather than adopt a more traditional approach to satire, i.e. Daumier's style, I choose to use a slightly skewed Northern Renaissance Style. My favorite artists are Bosch, Breugel, Hans Bauldung Grien, Dürer, and Rogier Van Weyden. I am also a big fan of the German Expressionists Otto Dix and Max Beckman.
