Descripción
This publication brings together the most iconic caricatures by Julio Larraz, spanning more than six decades of artistic career.
Julio Larraz is a multifaceted Cuban artist who began drawing at a young age, starting with caricatures of his teachers. His life was marked by his exile to the United States in 1961, where he found in caricature a way to channel his concerns and to develop a critique of the political environment around him.
Larrazs caricature style is characterized by satirical humor and a touch of surrealism. With swift and precise lines, he captures the essence of his subjects. His depictions of political figures, published in various media outlets, reflect his critical view of social reality, while his more intimate works reveal his ability to uncover human nature.
With image selection and texts by Kosme de Barañano, this book gathers 300 caricatures created over six decades. It ranges from his early works in Cuba to portraits of figures such as Nixon, Obama, and Trump. The work offers a pictorial memoir that integrates both his public and private lives.
