Halfway between an artist’s book, scrapbooking, and a multiple, the latest editorial production from the duo Mazaccio and Drowilal is part of the series «Iconology,» which began in 2017. The artists drew from their collection of images, which particularly explores digital and internet subcultures, to compose the diptychs of this limited edition, numbered from 1 to 20. Each collage is made from a chromogenic print mounted on screen-printed cardboard, on which the artists intervene using paints, cut-out drawings, wallpaper, colored and holographic vinyl, custom tape with their names on it, and spray paint.
Each edition is unique and includes 12 collages made by the artists, bound together with colorful straps. By confronting and enhancing these advertisements, internet memes, cinematic and television references, or masterpieces from art history, the duo reappropriates these icons and questions the way images shape the idea of reality.
