ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This blue wall sculpture can be hanged from the part of the woman or the part of the man. It is inspired in an ancient sculpture of the Pre-Columbian culture of San Agustin of the country Colombia (South America). It is from a series I called "Neo Colombinos Agustinianos" that means "New-Columbians". It's a tribute to an old and ancestral culture already extinct from Colombia. I try to use materials from our contemporary world such as fiberglass, resins, gold leaf, markers, automotive paint, automotive varnish, all these to create a very polished finish. The sculpture has elements from our contemporary world such as glasses, tie, watch, etc. It represents a family, a woman with a child in her arms, and a man. I like to intervene my art works with what I call "Johnnyglifics", which is my own language loaded with symbolism of many cultures and what I am thinking at the moment. In a sense I am trying to unity the ancestral with the contemporary, the old with the new, the feminine with the masculine, the Pre-Columbian art with the Neo Pop art.

Johnny López
Colombia
The Colombian artist Juan Felipe López Hernández with artistic name "Johnny López", from an early age was characterized by his active imagination and his candid application in constantly drawing. After graduating from primary school and high school, he began his studies in business administration and international business in the city of Bogotá. It was in 2010 in a visit to Europe, that during his visit to the Louvre Museum, inspired to contemplate "The Mona Lisa" by Leonardo Da Vinci, he remembered and rediscovered his love for Art. In 2011 he began his artistic career studying in the city of Barcelona (Spain) first, in the "Cercle Artistic de Sant Lluc" under the guidance of Maestro Josep María Cavane, later taking extracurricular courses in drawing and graphic design at the "Escola Massana". This same year he came into contact with his dream side and connected with the world of lucid dreaming, it is through this amazing road where in a retreat in the Sierra Norte of Madrid, he met and linked up with the Valencian Master of Drawing, Joan Castejón, who later invited him to his home and studio in the city of Denia, in the Valencian community, giving birth to a great and beautiful friendship between the two artists. In the year 2012, he moved to the city of Florence (Italy), where he furthered his knowledge of the fine arts under the apprenticeship of several masters such as Giovanni Tommasi Ferroni, Rossana Pinero, and Gregory Burney among others while at the renowned "Scuola Lorenzo de 'Medici", where he familiarized himself with the amazing Art of the Renaissance. In 2015 he graduated in fine arts at the Florence campus of the American University "Marist College" of New York (USA). In 2016, trying to follow in the footsteps of Maestro Fernando Botero, he was accepted as an official copyist at the Louvre Museum in Paris (France), allowing him to get in touch with the main classical artists exhibited there and with the visiting public. Today his greatest inspiration comes when he closes his eyes and dreams lucidly, it is in this magical world where the gestation of his projects and his work begins. He currently concentrates his practice in paying tribute to the pre-Columbian cultures of his country, Colombia, uniting the ancestral with the contemporary, the material world with the oneiric world.
