Recommended by Nikki (Art Photographer / Marketing and Exhibitions Specialist):
Rodriguez’s graphic depictions of difficult-to-swallow topics feel tangible. The bold lines of the background draw attention to the small figures above the scene. One figure is shouting from a helicopter and pointing a gun, while the other also shouts and gestures frantically from a high-rise building. Both frame the central two figures who bare horns and tails to mark them as evil. Interestingly, the largest figure, assumed to be the artist dressed as a businessman, is hunched over with his hand in his pocket, tired. Even his pointed ears and large wings droop. The artist reminds us there’s no peace for those who choose evil from their positions of power.

Recommended by Paige(Collections Manager): I hold in high regard every work by Artemio Rodríguez, and this piece is especially interesting for all of its details.The woman thinks only of money, the devils pull the deceased into the mouth of a monster, and it is rounded out with “Death of the Sinner” on a scroll. I also love how the Latin phrase is rewritten as the much more crass: “Go to Hell”.The artist holds no punches.
