En Cokaygne se come y se bebe sin preocupaciones [In Cokaygne you live and drink with no worries]

Rodolfo Marqués (1982 –)

¡Explora el cautivador mundo del arte de Rodolfo Marqués! Artista argentino conocido por 'hackear' el sentido común, creando talleres surrealistas e instalaciones que invitan a la reflexión.

This object was made with the same technique of religious icons and is inspired by the first portable videogames of the 1980’s. The work evokes a satirical poem, “The land of Cokaygne (part of the Kildare poems, Irland, XIV century), in which a Franciscan friar describes a worldly paradise where the monks can enjoy gluttony, lust and sexual disinhibitions. The subject was later approached as “Terra di Cuccagna” in Italy or “Jauja” in Spain by other artists. The work represents an idyllic moment of abundance created by the machines and robots in one of the possible futures that the Third Buenos Aires brings. The siphons nurture the earth with milk, butter, honey and wine, while a trash container recycles the bread and meat, which are transported to the greasy pole used during the Cuccagna fest.
