About The Artwork
“Parody I” and “Parody II” are paintings based on the Mexican adult comic books known as “novelillas” or “historietas”, known for satirical or erotic illustrations and narratives; often sexist and violent. The kidnapped characters in the paintings reference the characters from a popular Mexican television family show, known for its comedy skits, often depicting satire drawn from the children that live in the same apartment complex in Mexico City. These figures from “El Chavo del 8” and from “El Chapulin Colorado” are Mexican popular culture icons and are well known outside of Mexico, specially throughout South America and parts of the US.

I currently practice art in Uvalde, Texas, about an hour west of San Antonio. I have a studio and art gallery in Uvalde and I having been teaching art at the college level for 14 years. I have exhibited in Chicago, Houston, San Antonio, Rhode Island, Corpus Christi, Mexico and Venezuela. Facebook: Abel Ortiz and Art Lab Contemporary Art Space. In 2022, after the Robb Elementary tragedy in my home town, I spearheaded a memorial mural project to memorialize the victims. I painted one of the murals, too.
