Edition of 50 - Hand-signed by artist - Published by Poligrafa Obra Grafica,Barcelona, Spain, on Guarro Paper - In excellent condition

Untitled #7 by Dr. Lakra, created in 2008, is a compelling etching on Guarro paper with a vintage aesthetic. This limited edition piece, signed and published by Poligrafa Obra Grafica in Barcelona, presents a diverse array of tattoo-inspired motifs rendered in sepia and red tones. The composition includes a blood-streaked female portrait adorned with flowers, a poised black panther, a coiled snake, and a dagger, among other symbolic elements like a monkey, a skull, and a winged insect. Each figure is richly detailed, evoking traditional tattoo artistry with a sense of dark romanticism and mystique. The artwork's chaotic arrangement suggests themes of danger, beauty, and the exotic, characteristic of Dr. Lakra’s exploration of cultural iconography and subversive symbolism.

Dr. Lakra (Mexico, 1972), born Jerónimo López Ramírez, is a contemporary artist renowned for his tattoo-inspired art. He transforms vintage illustrations, anatomical prints, and found objects by overlaying them with bold, graphic designs. His works explore themes of identity, culture, and the body, blending traditional tattoo aesthetics with fine art.

What is Surrealism?

Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
