"TvBoy is the son of post-modernism and of the cross media mash up. His
works are a Bakhtinian carnivalization of the contemporary world, where
styles, citations and influences pour onto his canvases like fragments
of street pop with a neo-punk aftertaste." -Jacopo Perfetti TvBoy leads
Drago's 36 chambers series into an artistic representation of the
digital age in this eclectic collection of fine art, drawings and
graffiti. His unique iconography depicts heavily caricatured children
whose block-like heads are interchangeable with television screens.
These inimitable characters have a Kauai grace reminiscent of Katano,
Kaikai and Murukami but are unmistakably influenced by the occidental
imagery of comic strips defined by the likes of Schultz and Watterson.
TvBoy is the pseudonym and brand created by Italian artist, Salvatore
Benintende. After beginning his artistic career on the streets of Milan,
he moved to Barcelona where his eye-catching works were elevated to the
space of several leading galleries and museums from around the world.
