Untitled (Your manias become science) 1981.
Using photography and editorial elements such as typography, it manages to deliver a collective punch about our reality. The danger of playing with fire and turning the extraordinary into something dangerous.

On September 14, 1865, Manet returned from his stay in Madrid and wrote to Baudelaire that Velázquez "is the greatest painter who ever lived"
His fascination with Spain had led the French artist to see for himself the work of the Spanish master displayed at the Royal Museum of Madrid.

With stately triumphs, mirthful comic shows,
Such as befits the pleasure of the court?
Sound drums and trumpets! farewell sour annoy!
For here, I hope, begins our lasting joy."

"Triumph Over Mastery II"
An artist who erases Michelangelo's The Last Judgment. The uniform and homogeneous white eliminates the red that evokes the sensory and the human. Red that permeates the painter.
