Koldo Logan is back to Sitges with the Action Man Fetiche

From August 30 to September 15, Koldo Logan returns to Sitges with the Action Man Fetiche, which can be seen at artAmore Sitges coinciding with the Bears Week 2019.

Koldo Logan has transformed the Action Man that Hasbro made between 1990 and 2006, in the current Action Man Fetiche and in artAmore you can see the latest dolls of the artist.

Koldo Logan is a project in itself. His work is the product of a disturbing and transforming mind, he seeks anonymity and unique facts in his premeditated designs. Activist of the second opportunities he refuses to serialize his work. His production is unique and limited. It has a beginning and an end. Why? Because every object of the past is exhausted. They go from realistic reproductions, the fruit of his stories and his experiences, to become, in his latest works, iconic and sculptural couples. The pilots, butchers, sailors and angels, among many others, have evolved from the meticulousness of the details and the most sophisticated costumes, to the nakedness of the body and the pure color as the best exponent of the art and the strongest emotions.

So far all of them had been modified and reconstructed manually using recycled materials, natural hair from friends in many of them. Their definitive features and styling are the result of a detailed and painstaking process of research on real or fictitious models, many of them icons of fetish social networks object of the Bears tribes, which glamorize male’s genetics physical values.

Koldo Logan designed and recovered all the clothing and footwear, as well as the accessories, with the support of a select tribe of colleagues, artisans and artists who have brought fabrics, pins, leather, recycled materials, points of view, pictures and above all  a great dose of emotion and passion.

“Bearded”

Romina Rizo has prepared a collection of oil paintings inspired by different “bearded” icons of social networks. She plays with the male aspect that these men represent and mixes it with a more tender vision, creating then characters that are far away from their stereotype.

Her paintings always follow the same thread, she creates images that cause a reaction in the viewer, where emotional memory plays a fundamental role in perception.

Born in Venezuela, but with Italian roots, she lives in Roses, Girona. Self-taught, she studies painting now. Her main motivation for painting is her passion for art, which for her means emotion, just what she wants to convey with her work.
