This book by the “neologist” par excellence, Felipe Ehrenberg, is the result of the first retrospective of his work; the work of a multidisciplinary plastic artist in constant inquiry: from painting to performance or different digital media.
These pieces that play with kitsch, violence, popular culture, humor or eroticism—and reinvent it—will allow us to delve into those fifty years of Ehrenberg's artistic career, smile and question ourselves.
This artist's book, co-published by Diamantina publishing house with RM, is extraordinary not only for its contents and its magnificent design, but also for the way in which it took shape: “I don't think I am baroque,” commented the artist, “but I choose Manchuria because it shares the M of Mexico, it could have green, white and green, like the soldier's uniform… everyone has heard of Manchuria, few know where it is… like my work.”
